Because he is busy with Copa America 2024, Messi has not played for Inter Miami since mid-June 2024.
The South American Nations Championship has ended, but the team of owner Beckham continues to be without the service of El Pulga.

As is known, in the match where Argentina beat Colombia 1-0 in the Copa America 2024 final on the morning of July 15, Messi suffered an ankle injury.
Therefore, the former Barca and PSG striker had to leave the field in the 66th minute.
El Pulga cried a lot in the cabin after being forced to leave the field to make way for Nico Gonzalez.
According to TyC Sports, Messi suffered an ankle ligament injury. Luckily for El Pulga, his condition is not serious. Instead of surgery, Messi will undergo physical therapy.
Also related to Messi’s condition, according to ESPN, the captain of the Argentine national team will have to rest for about 40 days.
This is bad news for Inter Miami because El Pulga has been injured frequently since joining this American team. Since joining Inter Miami, Messi has suffered 5 different injuries.
It is even more worrying for owner Beckham’s team because they are showing signs of running out of steam after nearly 3 weeks of success. Specifically, since Messi participated in Copa America 2024, Inter Miami has won 4 consecutive matches in the US professional league.
After 4 consecutive wins, Inter Miami lost miserably to Cincinnati with a score of 1-6 on July 7. This shocking defeat caused Inter Miami to lose the top spot to Cincinnati.
