He is most likely to suit up for Inter Miami in their League Cup debut against Cruz Azul of the Liga MX on July 21.
Messi praised the audience for their support and stated that he shared their goals in his response.
He declared that he was eager to begin practising, playing, and competing. Additionally, he claimed that his desire to play and support the club’s expansion was the same as it had been in the past.
The world’s top attacker will team up with Sergio Busquets, a defensive midfielder. For Barcelona, the two players have played together. Along with Gerardo Martino, Messi will work under the former Barça and Argentina manager.
He was referred to as “America’s number 10, the world’s best number 10” when he was first unveiled to the club’s supporters. English player and co-owner of Inter Miami David Beckham was among many who welcomed Messi, saying that getting the Argentine superstar was a dream come true. Owner of Inter Miami and American billionaire Jorge Mas spoke to Messi as “the best player ever to don boots” while he was in attendance.
Given that Messi was reportedly offered USD 1.5 billion for three years by Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal, his signing with the American club is regarded as a wonderful deal.
