Barcelona's Lionel Messi won't rush return from injury

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi insists that it will be his body that determines when he returns from injury.

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi has said that he won't rush his return from a hamstring injury.

The Argentinian, 26, limped out of the Spanish champions' victory at Real Betis last weekend.

He has now been ruled out for two months and insists that it would be up to his body to determine his return.

The 26-year-old told Diaro Ole: ""The plan is to resume playing when the body tells me I'm fine."

Meanwhile, left-back Jordi Alba hopes to return to full training in 10 to 15 days' time in the final stretch of his recovery from a muscle injury he sustained last month.
