Certainly, Scaloni’s words make it clear that he is fit and fine and doesn’t have any injury concerns. Additionally, this development increases the likelihood of their star player participating in the final MLS game.

But with this update, will he risk the Argentine for the final MLS games?

Will Tata Martino risk Lionel Messi for the final MLS games?

Earlier, Tata Martino was questioned over the availability of Messi for their remaining two MLS games against Charlotte. However, the Miami boss insisted he has no plans to insist on having La Pulga in the squad if his condition is deemed unfit for the match. He stressed that the thorough evaluation of all players, not exclusively Messi, returning from international commitments is a priority to avoid any injury risks.

However, with Lionel Scaloni’s encouraging update, the Herons boss may gain the confidence to field his No. 10. The Herons are scheduled to play their first match against Charlotte tomorrow. Perhaps they may have to navigate the initial fixture without their captain. It remains to be seen if graces the pitch for the final match. Any thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.
