Lionel Messi Resumes Group Training with Inter Miami

The star forward takes a significant step in his recovery from an ankle injury, but his return to matches remains uncertain.

Messi joined team practice for the first time since his ankle injury during the Copa America final.
He has missed 14 MLS games this season, including the last eight due to injury and international duty.
Inter Miami leads MLS with the best record and has already clinched a playoff spot.
Coach Tata Martino has not provided a specific return date for Messi, though a mid-September return is possible.
Messi was not selected for Argentina's upcoming World Cup qualifiers, allowing more recovery time.
