Lionel Messi's arrival in Major League Soccer has been announced, and after years of looking and haggling, Inter Miami has finally found a well-known talent. Less than five weeks after Messi said he would be transferring to Inter Miami, his contract became enforceable on Saturday. In a statement, Messi, who is departing from Paris Saint-Germain, said, "I'm really happy to start this new step in my career with Inter Miami and in the United States. This is a great opportunity, and together we will develop this amazing concept further. He said, "I'm eager to start contributing here in my new home." Our shared goal is to achieve the objectives we have established." The team's Leagues Cup match against Cruz Azul on Friday might be the first home game of the Messi era. At its stadium in Fort Lauderdale on Sunday night, the club will introduce the superstar from Argentina.
Tuesday is most likely the day of his first practice with his new team, and a formal news conference is slated for Monday. The team had stated that Messi's deal will pay him between $50 million and $60 million annually for a total monetary value of between $125 million and $150 million over the course of two and a half years. On Saturday, the group tweeted "BIENVENIDO 10." Yes, Messi, you're welcome. It is a marriage that is unusual in a lot of ways. Messi will join an MLS team that was in last place in the Eastern Conference standings as of Saturday. Messi is still undoubtedly the biggest player in the game. Inter Miami is a team that has only been in existence for four seasons, has never won a title, and plays in a makeshift stadium that, after some hasty modifications like adding extra seats, can only accommodate about 22,000 fans. Don Garber, the commissioner of Major League Soccer, issued a statement in which he said, "We are overjoyed that the greatest player in the world chose Inter Miami CF and Major League Soccer."
His choice is evidence of the enthusiasm and momentum in North America for our League and our sport. One of the quotes said, "Lionel will show the world that the MLS can be a League of Choice for the best players in the game." After longtime adversary Cristiano Ronaldo went there, the 36-year-old striker, who helped Argentina win the World Cup last year in Qatar, was said to be transferred to Saudi Arabia to play for Al-Hilal. He also had the option of returning to Barcelona, the legendary team where he played for most of his playing career. Miami triumphed in the end. Two years before the team apparently began considering how to pull this off, co-owner David Beckham publicly floated a notion in 2021 that has already come to pass. Only Cristiano Ronaldo, with 140 goals in the premier club tournament, has more goals than Messi. Four times, Messi has won the Champions League. Among Messi's achievements are ten La Liga championships, two Ligue 1 crowns, seven Copa del Reys, three Club World Cups, a Copa América, and an Olympic gold medal for Argentina. He has also won three Club World Cups.
