Lionel Messi will miss his MLS team Inter Miami's two upcoming matches due to the ankle injury the Argentine superstar sustained in the Copa América final against Colombia.

There will be more examinations to assess how serious the situation is, says Miami's coach Gerardo Martino.

The 37-year-old Messi was substituted in the 66th minute of the final two days ago. TV images showed that his right ankle was significantly swollen.

Argentina won the final in extra time after Lautaro Martínez decided in the 112th minute of the match.
