Lionel Messi has officially returned to training with the Argentina national team after delivering yet another impressive performance for Inter Miami in Major League Soccer. The 37-year-old forward was granted permission to feature in his club's recent MLS fixture, where he netted a brace, before rejoining the Albiceleste camp ahead of their upcoming international fixture on Tuesday.
Messi, who continues to balance his club commitments in the United States with national team duties, looked in high spirits during Argentina's training session. The World Cup-winning captain was seen participating in light drills and agility exercises alongside his teammates, showing no signs of fatigue after his recent exploits with Inter Miami.
Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni will be delighted to have his talisman back as the team prepares for their next challenge in the World Cup qualifying campaign. Messi's presence not only boosts morale but also brings vital experience and leadership to a squad that remains one of the strongest in international football.
