Lionel Messi might have to wait a while to play with Inter Miami again.

Lionel Andrés Messi continues to be one of the best players in the world, even though he has not been able to play in the last three games due to his injury. When he was playing with Argentina, against Ecuador, Lionel Messi asked to be substituted before the match finished, subsequently, he missed the match against Bolivia. Already with Inter Miami, he has not been able to play in the last three games, which he has not been able to win the team.

Now, Inter Miami needs Lionel Messi more than ever, since the situation to qualify for the playoffs has become more complicated than expected. Inter Miami only has four games remaining, that is, twelve points at stake, and is more than obliged to win all four, and classification would not be guaranteed even then. Now, fans are wondering when Messi will be available.

In addition to Inter Miami, Argentina also has very important matches and they need the presence of Lionel Messi. This October 12, Argentina will face Paraguay, and then against Peru, in the qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

In the last few hours, a journalist assured that Leo had an MRI and the result was not encouraging at all. "Confirmed by an MRI, Lionel Messi would have a two-centimeter tear that would probably leave him out for the remainder of the season," reported journalist Caden DeLisa. For the moment, the Herons have not come out to deny that information and From what has been seen, it is not unreasonable to think that what he says is true.

Why doesn't Inter Miami talk about his injury?

Although it has not yet been officially confirmed that Lionel is torn, several fans point out that Inter Miami is hiding the captain's true status so that the MLS can continue generating money thanks to Leo. And if the recovery time had been confirmed from the beginning, they would not have sold tickets during that entire period.
