Leo Messi confirms he will play for Inter Miami next year

Inter Miami has signed Argentine superstar Lionel Messi, following in the footsteps of other elite athletes by transferring to the MLS.

The Major League Soccer team Inter Miami has signed Argentine superstar Lionel Messi, who made the announcement on Wednesday. The shocking news was revealed a few months after Messi led his nation to World Cup victory in December and was awarded the Golden Ball, which is presented to the tournament’s finest player. That also came after suggestions of a return back to his beloved Barcelona and rumors of a rich deal in the Middle East.

Instead, Messi has followed in the footsteps of other elite athletes by transferring to the MLS.

“I made the decision that I am going to Miami. I still haven’t closed it one hundred percent. I’m missing some things but we decided to continue my journey there,” said Messi after an interview.
