Mateo Messi Mentions Enzo Fernández: The Latest on Lionel Messi’s Sons’ Football Journey

Mateo mentions Enzo Fernandez

In an environment where football is lived with passion and dedication, Thiago and Mateo, sons of the renowned footballer Lionel Messi, continue their journey in the sport. After his father signed for Inter Miami, the two oldest joined the club’s Academy to continue their training. Although it is still premature to predict his future in the world of football, a recent video of Mateo participating in a challenge with his teammates has captured the public’s attention.

The viral challenge, based on an Instagram filter, consisted of when a random letter appeared, the children had to name a footballer whose initial matched the letter shown. When Mateo got the letter “F”, his response was “Enzo Fernández”, which caused a wave of joy and celebration among his colleagues, who were enthusiastic and showered the young man with congratulations.

We must remember that a few weeks ago, at the beginning of March, the Rosario star had an unusual reaction on his social networks. Messi left a comment on an Instagram post to deny alleged news about Mateo. The information published by the Mercado Deportivo site suggested that various academies in America expressed interest in his second son, attributing to the historic number 10 of the Argentine national team statements about his son’s talent and his decision to enroll him in a specific academy in Miami.

These words, according to La Pulga, were never uttered by him, which led the soccer star to express his discontent and clarify the facts publicly. His Instagram comment, where he denied his claims, received a wave of support from his followers, evidencing the affection and admiration that the public has for him and his family. “This is false, I never said that,” he commented on the publication.

Meanwhile, Lionel Messi, a teammate of the former River Plate in the Argentine national team, focuses his efforts on recovering from an injury to the hamstring in his right leg, an ailment that prevented him from stepping on the playing field recently. The man from Rosario was excluded from the national team squad due to this injury.

In tune with this situation, Inter Miami coach Gerardo Tata Martino also expressed his determination not to risk Messi’s health. He even recently acknowledged that they tried to postpone his participation in one of the key games of the season: the recent confrontation against the New York Red Bulls, however his request was not validated and the Herons fell 4-0.

“We agreed to suspend this match for later and the federation did not allow it and it is something that will have to be considered,” Martino explained in a press conference. With the Concachampions quarterfinals on the horizon, where they will face Monterrey of Liga MX, Martino emphasized the importance of Messi recovering completely, without rushing for his return, ensuring his participation only when he is in optimal conditions. .

In that sense, the Argentine coach also expressed his concern at the time about the MLS match calendar, which continues without pauses during FIFA dates, a practice that he has openly criticized: “We can’t afford it, we have to manage that.” In particular, he highlighted the difference that the World Cup year will represent, noting: “The 2026 World Cup is something different, I can’t imagine playing while the World Cup is being played.”
