Despite traveling to North Carolina, Lionel Messi will not play in Saturday’s MLS regular-season clash between Charlotte FC and Inter Miami at Bank of America Stadium. According to ESPN, head coach Javier Mascherano has decided to rest the Inter Miami captain for the match.

The decision comes directly from Mascherano and is not related to any injury. Messi’s Inter Miami and Argentina teammate Rodrigo De Paul will also miss Saturday night’s action, leaving The Herons without two key players for the league encounter.

The move appears to be part of squad management ahead of a crucial match next week. Inter Miami are expected to prioritize Wednesday’s second leg in the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 against Nashville, which likely influenced the decision to give Messi a rest.

Concerns about Lionel Messi’s availability grew ahead of the match after fans noticed the usual pregame Instagram story was missing from his account, while Inter Miami also did not post the traditional photo of his jersey before kickoff. Those details quickly sparked speculation about whether the Argentine star would feature in today’s clash.

However, the Argentina captain is still expected to lead Inter Miami as usual. According to reports from AS, Messi did not travel to North Carolina with the rest of the squad on Friday, choosing instead to make his way to Charlotte on Saturday.

The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner’s unusual travel plans are not expected to affect his playing time.
