Lionel Messi, a legend in football, is expanding his career in America. The renowned sportsman will play his first game for Inter Miami CF today in America. The 2023 Leagues Cup, a month-long competition featuring 47 clubs from Major League Soccer and LIGA MX, will begin with the game.
The international athlete’s agreement with Inter Miami CF was simply confirmed last week. David Beckham, the team’s co-owner, according to CNN, termed his signing a “dream come true.”
Messi declared, “This is a great chance, and together we will keep constructing this lovely project. “I’m very eager to start helping here in my new home. The idea is to work together to achieve the objectives we set.”
Messi’s Inter Miami CF contract is good through the 2025 campaign. The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner allegedly secured an ownership share in the team as well as a revenue-sharing agreement with MLS and Apple TV+ in addition to the $40 million to $50 million he will be making with the team. Really impressive, in our opinion!
