Argentina national team forward Lionel Messi will miss the upcoming qualifying matches for the World Cup 2026, as reported earlier.

Lionel Messi

As reported by renowned journalist and insider Fabrizio Romano, Messi has been diagnosed with a minor adductor muscle injury. That is why the Argentina national team will have to do without its leader in the upcoming matches.

Recall that on March 22, the Argentina national team will meet Uruguay, and on the 26th — with Brazil.
