Lionel Messi caused concern among football fans after he suddenly missed the match between Inter Miami and Orlando City at dawn on Wednesday.
Copa America 2024 begins next June 21, and there is great concern that Messi’s advanced age and many recent injuries may prevent him from being with the Tango in the United States.
According to American media, Messi’s absence from the Orlando match was a precautionary measure and nothing more after his injury to his left leg. This injury does not pose any threat to his participation in the Copa America.
Before that, Messi participated in training, cycling and running, but the club saw the need not to risk him for fear of any setback that would keep him out of the field for a long time.
It remains to be noted that Messi participated in 764 minutes during the current season with Inter Miami, during which he scored 10 goals and is the second best scorer for his team after Luis Suari.
