According to Inter Miami, Messi has been training and will be able to play again from September 15.
According to coach Tata Martino, Messi has been practicing in recent days, but only separately. The strategist leading Inter Miami confirmed that this 37-year-old player will play on September 15 when the American club meets Philadelphia Union.
This information has made Inter Miami fans very excited, as they are about to witness the 37-year-old Argentine star return to play after a long absence. Up to now, Messi has not played for Inter Miami for more than 2 and a half months, partly because he also suffered a serious injury in the Copa America final in mid-July.
During Messi’s time off, Inter Miami was eliminated early in the Leagues Cup, thereby losing the opportunity to defend the championship title that M10 and his teammates worked hard to achieve in the 2023 season.
Despite recovering from his ankle injury, Messi still needs physical therapy to rehabilitate the affected muscles and regain mobility in his ankle after a long period of inactivity.
Previously, Messi was not included in the Argentina national team preparing for the 2026 World Cup qualifying round taking place in early September.
