Lionel Messi’s planned friendly match in Kerala against Australia may be called off, reports from Argentina suggest. Journalist Gaston Edul said the India leg of Argentina’s tour may have “fallen through,” with plans shifting to another African nation. TyC Sports also hinted the game could move to Morocco or be postponed to March 2026. However, organisers in India insist the match is still on. “The Argentina A team will visit Kerala,” said Anto Augustine of Reporter TV. The game is scheduled for November 17 in Kochi’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, ahead of Messi’s December GOAT Tour across India.
