Lionel Messi is set to miss Argentina’s second successive friendly after it was reported he would not feature in the Albiceleste’s clash with Spain at Atletico Madrid’s Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday.
Messi has been struggling for fitness since linking up with his international side before sitting as an unused substitute during Friday’s 2-0 friendly win against Italy at the Etihad Stadium.
The forward has been complaining of discomfort in his hamstring and adductor in his right leg which has been attributed to fatigue from his grueling season.
