According to a report by Argentine sports newspaper Ole, within 15 minutes, when media was allowed to visit Argentina’s training camp, Messi was not spotted in the session.
Notably, the star striker was seen suffering from a hamstring in the semifinal against Croatia. This sparked off the fear of a possible injury that might affect his participation in the Final.
He is believed to have been undergoing training in the gym alongside Rodrigo De Paul and Emiliano Martinez and his participation in the World Cup final is not a concern. Lionel Messi will be seen for the very last time in Argentina’s jersey against the grand final against France.
