Tests on Friday cleared the Inter Miami forward of injury but Scaloni is considering resting him amid concerns over his heavy recent workload. “He is going to travel,” Scaloni told a news conference. “Today he trained apart [from the main squad]. There are still two days left until the game. We will make the decision tomorrow or on Tuesday.”
Messi has played 12 games in 48 days, having barely rested since joining Inter Miami on a free transfer in mid-July.
