Inter Miami won a title for the first time in history when they won the Leagues Cup last season.
In the press conference before the Columbus Crew match, coach Tata Martino confirmed that Messi would not play.
The Argentine coach did not even say when El Pulga would return.
As is known, Messi sprained his ankle in the Copa America 2024 final between Argentina and Colombia.
According to the initial diagnosis, the former Barca captain will rest for 4-6 weeks.
Nearly a month has passed but Messi still has to practice separately and has not been able to participate in training with the whole team. According to AS, this is a sign that the 37-year-old striker’s recovery process is not going as well as expected.
During his injury, Messi often goes on vacation with his family. In the Instagram post shared a day ago, Messi did not have to wear ankle protection as before.
Fortunately for Inter Miami, during Messi’s absence, coach Tata Martino’s team played quite well in the Leagues Cup and MLS.
As reported above, Inter Miami reached the round of 16 of the Leagues Cup, and in the US Major League Soccer, President David Beckham’s team topped the Eastern Conference standings with 5 points more than second-placed Cincinnati (53 vs. 48).
