The Argentinian had his coronavirus test at home a couple of days ago and tested negative.
Yet, he is still unable to train with the rest of the squad due to the La Liga regulations.
Just like Philippe Coutinho, the captain will train on his own for a few more days until he has another coronavirus test.
The rest of the first-team squad will travel as normally at 17:30 CET today.
According to multiple sources, Messi could still be cleared to play in Barcelona's first pre-season friendly against Nastic this Saturday.
Leo missed the whole week of training because he was uncertain about his future.
