BUENOS AIRES: Injured Argentina captain Lionel Messi was left out of the squad announced on Monday by the Argentine FA for next month’s South American World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Colombia.
The 37-year-old Messi was not included in the 28-man squad following an ankle injury sustained during last month’s Copa America final in the United States. The Inter Miami player is currently recovering at his club.
Argentina host Chile at the Monumental stadium in Buenos Aires on Sept 5 before facing Colombia five days later in Barranquilla.
