Lionel Messi is set to undergo further medical assessments after sustaining an injury during Inter Miami's MLS match on Sunday, but the Argentina camp remains optimistic about his availability for the upcoming World Cup.
The forward limped off the field in the second half, sparking concerns among fans and teammates. However, early indications suggest the injury is not severe, and Argentina's medical staff expect him to recover in time for the tournament.
"We are taking all necessary precautions, but we are confident that Leo will be ready when it matters most," a team spokesperson said. Argentina's World Cup campaign hinges heavily on Messi's form and fitness, making his condition a top priority.
