Inter Miami manager Tata Martino has revealed the fact that Argentina legend Lionel Messi is training indoors and won’t be available for selection against Puebla at 01:00 tonight.

The manager revealed this during the press conference ahead of the match against Puebla for the Leagues Cup.

He said, “Leo has been exclusively working indoors with the kinesiologist; he’ll have some more days in the boot, and then we will see the timetable as to when he can return to training on the field.”

In addition, Martino said, “But his ankle is looking better every day. As for his mood, you can imagine how he feels knowing he can’t play. The days pass, and each day he is more eager to play, but you have to respect time, and he has to heal properly.”

Lionel Messi got injured in the 2024 Copa America final against the Colombia national team. He was taken off the pitch in the 66th minute of the game. 

The Inter Miami fans are looking forward to seeing Lionel Messi return to the pitch to help them win the MLS title and also retain the America Leagues Cup.
