Messi played the full 90 minutes under manager Lionel Scaloni after coming off the bench for 35 minutes in a 1-0 win over fellow Copa America contenders Ecuador on Sunday in Chicago.

Paris Olympics 2024 is scheduled from July 26 to August 11, following the conclusion of the Copa America football tournament, which runs from June 20 to July 14.

Xinhua reports that the visitors faced a tense moment when Lionel Messi left the field in the 42nd minute, seemingly injuring his left knee after a rough tackle from George Campbell.

According to Argentina's TyC Sports, Angel Di Maria's contract with Benfica is set to expire next month, and Inter Miami is leading the race to sign the 36-year-old player.

Scaloni hinted at departing his position after Argentina's 1-0 win against Brazil in their FIFA World Cup qualifier at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana stadium in November.

The 36-year-old suffered the injury while playing for Inter Miami in the team's 3-1 home victory over Nashville in the CONCACAF Champions Cup last Wednesday.

I'm not thinking about the World Cup and I'm not saying 100 per cent that I won't be there because anything can happen. Because of my age, the most normal thing is that I won't be there. Then we'll see, said Messi

Since his 2004 debut, the Santa Fe native's career has been a true fairytale.

At 36 years old, Messi has been sidelined since October 21, following a 1-0 loss for his Inter Miami squad against Charlotte on the last day of the Major League Soccer regular season, as reported by Xinhua.

Messi's exceptional performance in the 2022 tournament propelled La Albiceleste to their third World Cup victory. Leading from the forefront, he scored a brace in the final against France, securing glory for his national team.

Lionel Messi secured his eighth Ballon d'Or in 2023, setting a remarkable record spanning from 2009 to 2023.

Messi took to Instagram and posted a story with a picture of the pair celebrating in Barcelona colours and wrote a message of "lots of strength" for his former teammate.

In the third minute, the 35-year-old Benfica defender, with a spectacular volley from Rodrigo de Paul's corner, gave the hosts the lead, leaving goalkeeper Carlos Coronel helpless.

Despite an undisclosed muscle injury sidelining the 36-year-old Inter Miami forward from his last four Major League Soccer club games, Lionel Messi's position as the Albiceleste captain remains intact in Argentina's squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Once more, this trend continued on Saturday as the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner was left out of the lineup for a crucial game against New York City FC.
