Last Wednesday, Lionel Messi saw how Inter Miami lost leg-1 of the Concacaf Champions League game against Monterrey. Rayados won 2-1 without Leo Messi as the Argentine recovered from a right hamstring injury. Back in March 13, Leo suffered this set back that has prevented him from playing for the last 3 weeks. Amid the Concachampions’ upcoming second leg in Miami, Messi needs at least a few minutes to try out his fitness and get himself ready for this crucial game. Inter Miami just offered a new update on Leo and the fans will be surprised by what the club has to say. It all happened through a simple tweet that announced Messi’s current status.

Is Leo Messi playing against Monterrey?

Before facing Rayados, Inter Miami has a pending MLS game that is taking place next Saturday. They are facing the Colorado Rapids and the locals had an annoucement to make on Friday. Fortunately for fans who bought tickets for Saturday, they will get a chance to see the Argentine idol as Inter Miami announced he is returning to a call-up list. Messi is officially back to activity in order to get as ready as possible for next Wednesday. Inter Miami’s No. 10 came here to win titles and trying to get past the Concacaf Champions League quarter finals is the perfect motivator for Messi to continue playing.

After only seven games in the MLS season, Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami is currently second place in the Eastern Conference with 11 points. They are only trailing FC Cincinnati, who are sitting at the top with 12 points. In the West, only Los Angeles Galaxy has more points than Inter Miami. This means that if Leo recovers and helps his team win the next two games, Inter Miami will continue their road to win two trophies this season. Everybody will be crossing their fingers and hope Messi comes out of the game against Colorado with positive sensations. Getting to the Concacaf Champions League semifinals is all that matters now.
