Messi will play in Argentina's away match in Peru

Previously, Messi was suspected of not being able to play in the match against Peru due to his physical condition. Argentine press predicted that he would still accompany the entire Argentina team to the capital Lima (Peru), but as a member of the coaching staff like in the recent away match against Bolivia.

Messi arrived in Lima (Peru) on October 17.

However, according to confirmation from coach Scaloni in a press conference on October 16 before the entire Argentina team flew to Lima: "Messi is completely fine and trained fully in the last training session before the match. We put him on the list of players to compete in Peru.

But whether Messi starts or when, we will have to wait and see one more training session to make a decision. If he is still completely fine, he will play from the start. We always want Messi to play, it is good for football and for everyone."

According to Diario Ole (Argentina): "Messi and his teammates have only really returned to training in the last 2 days, because after the 1-0 win over Paraguay (October 13), coach Scaloni let the whole team go home to visit their families on Mother's Day in Argentina (October 15). Messi previously only played for about 30 minutes in the second half of the match against Paraguay, and similarly in the match where Inter Miami lost 0-1 to FC Cincinnati (October 8). The last match this famous player started was on September 21 in the match where Inter Miami won 4-0 against Toronto FC, but he was substituted after only 37 minutes due to injury."

Messi trained normally before Argentina's match against Peru

Argentina fans are always waiting for Messi to play again, because that also means the recent worries about his injury will also end.

Also according to coach Scaloni: "The Argentina team is not considering any backup plan in case Messi does not play or retires. We only focus on the present and Messi is still here. We do not know when Messi will stop. So it is better not to speculate anymore. Let everything happen."
