Lionel Messi is ready for comeback after two months' absence due to injury.

The Argentine star is expected to play when Inter Miami meet Philadelphia on Saturday.

He's doing well. He trained on Thursday and is included in our plans for the match. Getting the world's best football player back to our already strong team makes us very happy, said Miami's coach Gerardo Martini ahead of Friday's training.

Messi injured his right ankle in the Copa America final on July 14, where Argentina defeated Colombia.

He has missed eight matches for Inter Miami, who lead the eastern conference, as well as Argentina's latest World Championship qualifiers.
