T<\/span>The 2026 World Cup is approaching and at Leo Messi’s house we know it. The Argentina star is looking forward to another World Cup, but it will likely be his last so he plans to make the most of it. Messi is assembling his own World Cup at home after his injury, so he’s using his time to do some crafts while he waits.<\/p>\nLeo Messi shared his new “structure” through social media, garnering many positive comments and also being the envy of fans of the LEGO brand, which recently released a new World Cup collection.<\/p>\n
Leo Messi builds a new World Cup<\/h2>\n
Lionel Messi is enjoying a few days off, perfect for spending more time with his family and finding a new hobby to de-stress and have fun. The Argentine had to miss Inter Miami’s end-of-season tour due to injury, which gave him more time to relax.<\/p>\n
A while ago, the Lego brand launched its own version of the World Cup, and obviously Messi needed to get his own version so he could build it with his kids and Antonella.<\/p>\n

Leo Messi crowned king of the Lego world<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\nOn Instagram, Messi shared a photo of the process already completed. In the image, the Argentine player can be seen posing very happily with the completed Lego Cup, indicating that he has had some fun and had time to assemble his own version of the trophy he won in 2022.<\/p>\n
Lionel Messi injured, Inter Miami trip postponed<\/h2>\n
Inter Miami are on a trip to Latin America, and the highlight will be watching Leo Messi play against different teams from the continent. However, a few days ago it was confirmed that the Argentine player was injured, forcing the match against Independiente del Valle in Puerto Rico to be suspended.<\/p>\n
Inter Miami confirmed Messi’s injury, and although he will be out for a short period with a strained left hamstring, they have still changed their tour plans.<\/p>\n
\n
\nMessi did not participate in training on Wednesday, February 11th due to a muscle tear in his left hamstring during the game against Barcelona SC in Ecuador.<\/p>\n
Communication with Inter Miami<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\nInter Miami suspended their game against Independiente del Valle after Messi’s injury was confirmed, but the game is expected to be played in the Argentine star’s presence in the coming days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
