Lionel Messi is taking some time off to recover from a strained hamstring. With the Champions Cup quarterfinals and Copa America looming in the next few months, the Argentine star doesn’t want to take any chances.

When will he return? Inside Inter Miami hosts Andre Fernandez and Michelle Kaufman break that down in the latest episode of the show.

We also revisit Luis Suarez’s recent goal-fest, which has him living up to his “Pistolero” (Gunslinger) nickname; the win over D.C. (without Messi), visiting fans rooting for Messi’s team, Leo Campana’s sacrifices for the team, Fede Redondo’s performance; and what to expect from the road game at New York Red Bulls on Saturday.

Remember, you can watch this show on YouTube and on our site at miamiherald.com. The podcast is available on Spotify, iTunes and most other platforms where you listen to your pods. Thank you for watching and listening, and enjoy!
