With his recent discomfort, reports have positioned Lionel Messi highly in doubt for Argentina's first pre-World Cup friendly against Honduras. Lionel Messi raised the alarms on Sunday by exiting the Inter Miami game before the final whistle, in what was first seen as a potential injury with the 2026 World Cup just around the corner. While a major injury has been discarded, reports have appeared putting Messi’s presence for the first Argentina friendly against Honduras highly in doubt. In the game between Inter Miami and the Philadelphia Union at Nu Stadium on Sunday, Messi was spotted clutching his left hamstring and asking to be subbed off around the 71st minute. Once the ball came out, the forward got replaced by Mateo Silvetti in the 73rd minute and headed straight down the tunnel to the locker room in scenes that looked far from optimistic. Head coach Guillermo Hoyos then brought some calmness to the Argentina national team by stating that the substitution was due to fatigue, avoiding exposing Messi to a major setback. Argentine journalist and insider Gastón Edul then reported that he had a muscle overload and wasn’t dealing with a structural muscular injury. Almost 24 hours after the event, ESPN Argentina has revealed some more details, stating that after undergoing medical examinations, Lionel Messi is dealing with a mild strain in the hamstring of his left leg. The recovery timeline suggested by the outlet addressed that the Argentine legend will require between 10 and 14 days of recovery. Lionel Messi #10 of Inter Miami CF runs with the ball against Jovan Lukic #4 of Philadelphia Union. This timeline has a direct conflict with not only the beginning of Argentina’s training camp on June 1st, but also the first friendly prior to the start of the World Cup. The game against Honduras at Kyle Field in Texas is scheduled for June 6th, meaning that Lionel Messi would have exactly 12 days to recover prior to the game against the CONCACAF side. This timeline puts Lionel Scaloni and Argentina’s coaching staff in need of making a decision over Messi and his fitness. Argentina will have another friendly against Iceland on June 9th, three days after the Honduras one, and its World Cup debut on the 16th against Algeria. With such limited time for Messi to reach his peak condition once again, the Argentine No. 10 seems likely to be rested, though it remains to be seen if it’ll be for one or both friendly games. Memories of a similar scenario back in 2022 Compared to the 2022 edition in Qatar, the 2026 World Cup in Mexico, Canada, and the USA has returned to the basics, with the competition being played at the end of the season and not in the middle as it happened four years ago. Still, a similar scenario of physical bewilderment has been around the Argentina national team, including Lionel Messi. Back on November 5th in 2022, Paris Saint-Germain released a statement revealing that Messi suffered an inflammation in his Achilles tendon just 15 days prior to the beginning of the World Cup in Qatar. The Argentine missed the game on the 6th against FC Lorient, but was able to return and perform 75 minutes on the 13th against Auxerre, and then went on and took part of every minute during the World Cup starting from the debut against Saudi Arabia on the 22nd.
Inter Miami are hosting the Philadelphia Union for the 2026 MLS in what will be Lionel Messi's last official game prior to the beginning of the 2026 World Cup. Inter Miami are set to host the Philadelphia Union on Sunday, May 24th, for a high-stakes MLS matchup at Nu Stadium. With this serving as Lionel Messi‘s final club appearance before joining Argentina for the 2026 World Cup, the Argentine star will be looking to keep fitness by taking part of the game. Lionel Messi has been included in the starting lineup against the Philadelphia Union. The Argentine icon has logged the full 90 minutes in each of his last 10 MLS appearances, and with the World Cup just around the corner, he is looking to accumulate valuable competitive minutes to ensure he enters tournament play in peak form. The Herons enter the weekend riding the momentum of a convincing 2-0 victory over the Portland Timbers last Sunday. That result snapped a frustrating winless drought at Nu Stadium, securing their historic first win at the new venue after an initial stretch of three draws and a loss. Backed by a three-game MLS winning streak, Inter Miami currently sits second in the Eastern Conference standings with 28 points through 14 matches, trailing only league leaders Nashville SC, who pace the conference with 33 points. Conversely, the Philadelphia Union have devolved into a mere shadow of the squad that captured the 2025 Supporters’ Shield. Hampered by the high-profile departures of Tai Baribo, Kai Wagner, and Jakob Glesnes, head coach Bradley Carnell has struggled to find answers with a depleted roster. Currently anchored to the bottom of the table with just seven points through 14 games, the Union are desperate to break out of a brutal seven-match winless slide that includes four draws and three defeats. Lionel Messi #10 of Inter Miami CF controls the ball against Finn Surman #20 of the Portland Timbers. Messi puts up staggering numbers in May Following a string of disappointing setbacks in both the CONCACAF Champions Cup and early MLS action, Javier Mascherano made the decision to step down as Inter Miami’s manager. Under the guidance of new boss Guillermo Hoyos, the Herons have shown immense improvement, largely fueled by Messi’s spectacular individual tear throughout the month of May. Beginning with the Florida Derby against Orlando City on May 2nd, and stretching through matches against Toronto FC, FC Cincinnati, and Portland, Messi has racked up four goals and four assists. With eight direct goal contributions over that span, another standout performance on Sunday could very well secure MLS Player of the Month honors for the legendary playmaker.
