Lionel Messi is going to skip Argentina’s next two World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Colombia due to injury.

Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni announced 28-man squad on Monday for the matches against Chile on 5th September against Colombia on 10th September.

Messi is still recovering from a right ankle injury. He suffered from the injury during last month’s Copa America final, helping Argentina to victory over Colombia, but Martino said the 37-year-old Argentine striker is getting better.

Inter Miami have picked up eight wins without Messi, but have also exited the Leagues Cup.
