Messi set for Argentina return in Puerto Rico friendly

Lionel Messi has rejoined the Argentina squad and could feature in Tuesday’s friendly against Puerto Rico, coach Lionel Scaloni said after the forward skipped their 1-0 victory over Venezuela to play for Inter Miami at the weekend. Messi scored twice in Inter Miami’s 4-0 victory over Atlanta United in Major League Soccer on Saturday, and Scaloni said he would speak to the 38-year-old about his fitness before deciding if he plays against Puerto Rico. “I saw Messi play on Saturday. From what I know, he finished well. I haven’t spoken to him yet,” Scaloni told reporters on Monday.
