FIFA World Cup: Lionel Messi has returned to Argentina's squad for FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Bolivia, the South American country's football association said.

Messi, 37, missed the Albiceleste's September qualifiers against Chile and Colombia because of an ankle injury but has since returned to action for his club Inter Miami.

Argentina will play Venezuela away on October 10 and Bolivia in Buenos Aires five days later.
