World champion Lionel Messi should give the American soccer league a boost. “Nice things will happen,” said the Argentine. The club also announced another prominent addition.
‘The Unveil’ was the theme of the party at DRV PNK Stadium in Miami, Florida – and 18,000 guests turned out to see Lionel Messi. The seven-time world footballer is set to help shine his new club Inter Miami, a club that has gone 11 games unbeaten.
A storm at the beginning could only dampen the mood for a short time. Then Messi came on stage, hugged ex-soccer star David Beckham – co-owner and president of Inter Miami – and showed off his new jersey: pink and of course with the magical number 10 on the back.
“I have no doubt that we will have a lot of fun here,” said Messi, adding: “We will have a great time and beautiful things will happen.” It is very moving for him to be in Miami, Messi said on record and thanked him for his kindness.

Beckham called Messi “one of the greatest players to ever play this game”. The head of the US soccer league MLS, Don Garber, made a similar statement.

In a video message, sports greats such as football legend Tom Brady and basketball player Stephen Curry welcomed Messi to the United States. The MLS club had previously unveiled another new signing in Spanish midfielder Sergio Busquets. Busqets and Messi had played together at FC Barcelona for a number of years.
In Miami, the 36-year-old Argentinian, who won the soccer world championship with Argentina last winter, is said to earn between 50 and 60 million dollars a year. Messi’s first appearance in the new kit is set to come on July 21 when Miami open the Leagues Cup against Mexican club Cruz Azul. Messi’s contract with his old club Paris Saint-Germain expired after two years, and he did not return to his long-time club FC Barcelona.
