Messi, Garnacho back for Argentina World Cup qualifiers

Lionel Messi is expected to return for Argentina in their FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Chile on June 5 and Colombia on June 10, as the team clinched qualification despite missing star striker Inter Miami's match due to an adductor injury. Argentina will host Colombia in Buenos Aires ahead of a crucial series, with Messi set to join Inter Miami for the Club World Cup opener later that month. The national team's coach, Lionel Scaloni, confirmed Messi's inclusion but noted that key players like Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Montiel are sidelined due to injuries, while other selected squad members include Alejandro Garnacho.
