A pubis injury Messi picked from his international return match could prove a hitch to Barcelona’s match against Manchester United on April 10.
But this should prove a smile for Solskjaer men only if the Argentina international fails to recover in the next two-half of the remaining weeks to the clash.
Messi, 31, has been in form, recently orchestrating 2 goals and 2 assists in Barcelona’s 5-1 victory against Lyon a week a go.
According to the Sun, Messi did not pick well his home return match against Venezuela on Friday night, which saw the play maker succumb to pelvic injury as Argentina suffered 3-1 defeat Madrid.
A statement from Barcelona said that, Messi will not be in a position to play his second international friendly match between Argentina and Morocco.
“Lionel Messi did not have the return to international action that he would have wanted, and an injury picked up on Friday night means he will miss Argentina’s game against Morocco on Tuesday.”
“Whilst he would feature from start to finish, a problem with his pubis means that Messi will not play in the second friendly of the international break.”
Another proven hitch for the catalans is Luis Suarez injury, which may not allow him to take on the Red Devils.
Barcelona will also have to tackle Real Madrid in La Liga just four days before heading to England.
