Lionel Messi's return to Inter Miami and football activity is currently without a set date following the passing of his father, Jorge Messi, in Rosario. The Argentine star, who was preparing for a Leagues Cup match against Monterrey, urgently traveled to his home country to be with his family. Inter Miami has granted Messi unconditional support and full permission to remain in Argentina for as long as he needs. This personal tragedy has made his resumption of play unpredictable, especially after his recent high-level performance, including a brace against Atlético San Luis in the Leagues Cup. The break also pauses his pursuit of 1,000 career goals, with his current tally at 921. Inter Miami faces upcoming matches in the Leagues Cup against León and MLS fixtures against Nashville, Philadelphia Union, Toronto FC, and CF Montréal, all without their star player.
