The Inter Miami head coach shared that he will be careful with the Argentinian superstar.

Leo Messi is all right and can be picked to play tomorrow against Atlanta United, the Floridian side manager Gerardo “Tata” Martino said today.

Leo left his national team’s World Cup qualifying victory in the past week against Ecuador before the end of the match. While he traveled with his teammates for the Wednesday game against Bolivia, he was not part of the group that won 3-0 at La Paz’s high altitude.

“Messi is fine. But we will wait until after practice today to decide,” Inter Miami’s boss shared if Messi will play vs. Atlanta. “We will be cautious with him because we have a lot of crucial matches for a limited period of time.”

“This is not unexpected before we knew that this would happen at some time during the season, but that he would begin to get used to our situation, especially for campaigns like this with a lot of games,” the head coach added regarding the prospect of resting the Argentinian superstar during the season.
