Lionel Messi was one of the first players to report to the Argentina training camp after the team’s arrival in Buenos Aires for the international games in October against Peru and Paraguay.

Since returning from the most recent international break, Messi has seen very limited action for Inter Miami. During this time, he participated in the match against Ecuador but was injured and unable to play in the match against Bolivia.

Because of the injury, he was only able to play for the Herons for a total of 72 minutes while the team was fighting for points and ultimately missed out on a spot in the playoffs after losing their first game with the Argentine in action, which was against Cincinnati.Due to the fact that the final two games are scheduled to take place during the break, he will not play any more roles in their season. This is merely a formality for Miami, as they have nothing more to play for in the season.

Messi has made his way to Buenos Aires.

In the company of club teammate Facundo Farias, who is anticipated to train with the U23 side despite his participation in the senior list, the captain landed in Argentina’s capital city of Buenos Aires in a private aircraft, as was captured by cameras from ESPN. Farias is expected to train with the U23 side despite his inclusion in the senior list.

According to Informate Salta, the reigning world champions will do their practice later this evening at the Lionel Messi training facility in Ezeiza. The session will include players who have just arrived in camp, including Emiliano Martinez, Gonzalo Montiel, Julián Alvarez, Nicolás Otamendi, Alejandro Garnacha, Enzo Fernández, and Franco Armani.

On the third matchday of the CONMEBOL edition of the 2026 World Cup qualifying tournament, the defending Copa America champions will play host to Paraguay at the El Monumental stadium. This match will take place.

As they strive to qualify for the opportunity to defend their championship in the United States of America, Mexico, and Canada, they have started off the tournament by winning their initial two matches with scores of 4-0 against Ecuador and Bolivia.
