Liverpool centre-back Ronald Araujo has warned his Uruguay team-mates that fierce rivals Argentina remain a formidable force despite Lionel Messi's recent international retirement. Currently on loan at Anfield from Barcelona, the defender is preparing to face the South American heavyweights in a prestigious friendly clash at La Bombonera on Friday.

Roma have taken a firm stance regarding Nahuel Molina by blocking his late call-up to the Argentina national team for the upcoming international break. Despite a significant reduction in the defender's FIFA suspension, the Giallorossi have opted to keep the player at the Trigoria training base.

Was the English star treated unfairly?

Lionel Messi is poised to make a stunning and emotional return to Argentina just months after bidding farewell to the international stage. Inter Miami are reportedly finalising plans for a high-profile preseason friendly that would see the legendary forward step back onto the pitch where he played his final game for the 2022 World Cup winners.
