What is his stance on the World Cup? “Inter Miami” released an official statement about the extent of Messi’s injury

Inter Miami have revealed the details of the injury that forced Lionel Messi off the pitch against Philadelphia Union at a critical moment just two weeks before the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

An early exit raises concerns

Messi left the field in the 73rd minute of the game after suffering pain in his left thigh and was replaced amid panic among Inter Miami fans and Argentina fans.

Tests reveal the truth

“Inter Miami” explained in an official statement that medical examinations carried out by the Argentine captain showed that he suffered a muscle strain in the left hamstring muscle as a result of the enormous pressure of consecutive matches and the physical fatigue accumulated during the season.

The American club stated that the medical team will continue to monitor Messi’s condition daily and closely in the coming hours and days, and that the date of his return to group training will be determined based on the development of his condition and his response to the intensive treatment program.

A race against time

The technical staff, led by Lionel Scaloni, is waiting for the development of the health condition of its star with great concern, especially since Argentina is going to defend the title of the world champion in the tenth group, which includes the teams of Algeria, Austria and Jordan.
