Martino: Lionel Messi to return to Inter Miami before end of regular season amid ankle injury recovery

Concerns arose over Lionel Messi’s ankle injury when he was omitted from Argentina’s September World Cup qualifiers, but he may return to club action sooner than expected.

Inter Miami manager Tata Martino confirmed that the Inter Miami captain is making good progress in individual training sessions, and will play at least some part for the Herons before the playoffs start in late October.
