Inter Miami coach Gerardo Martino said that Lionel Messi will travel with the team to face Atlanta United and that he will also be part of the squad that will face New York on Saturday, September 21.
However, ‘Tata’ was cautious and mentioned that he will evaluate whether to ration the minutes of the Argentine star and not expose him, or other elements, to injuries, since Las Garzas face three very close matches.
