By IANS News November 16, 2023 • 09:14 AM View: 645

Major League Soccer: Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni has moved to allay fears about the fitness of Lionel Messi, ensuring he will be ready for the Albiceleste's World Cup qualifiers against Uruguay and Brazil.

Messi, 36, has not played since October 21, when his Inter Miami team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Charlotte in the final match day of the Major League Soccer regular season, reports Xinhua.

"Messi is fine, he is doing well. Even though he's played one game in the last 25 days, he's been training normally, he's fit and well," Scaloni told reporters on Wednesday.
