Argentina boss Gerardo Martino has revealed that Lionel Messi will return to action in Friday's Copa America clash against Panama.
The Barcelona attacker missed his team's 2-1 win over Chile on Monday night after picking up a back problem in training, but will be fit to return for Argentina's second Group D match on Friday.
"Messi trained with the group and is going to play tomorrow. I see no reason to not include him," Martino told reporters.
Goals from Angel di Maria and Ever Banega saw Argentina overcome Chile on June 7.
