Argentine national team and Barcelona forward Lionel Messi will not play in the Champions League final against London's Arsenal.
According to press reports, "this was supposed to be one of the most important matches of the young talent's career so far."
According to Barcelona's medical staff, the thigh injury sustained at the beginning of this year during the UEFA Champions League round of 16 match against London's Chelsea has led the young talent out of the lineup for longer than expected.
It is claimed that now there is only a 2% chance that Messi will take to the field in Paris.
"With this type of injury, miracles don’t happen," emphasized Barcelona medics, once again warning the Argentine - If Messi rushes now, he will not play in the World Cup either.
L. Messi himself has previously said that he will recover and prepare properly for the match against Arsenal in the Champions League final.
It is worth noting that L. Messi suffered a thigh injury during the Champions League round of 16 match against London's Chelsea. At that time, the Argentine had to undergo treatment for a torn muscle. In the summer of this year, in a match against Atletico, Messi also suffered a leg injury, which kept him out of training for 10 days.
