Lionel Messi, widely regarded as the greatest soccer player of all time, has officially joined Major League Soccer’s Inter Miami.
After his successful stint with Paris Saint Germain, Messi shocked the world by making the move to the North American league.
Despite initial skepticism, the deal was finalized on Saturday as Messi signed a contract that could earn him up to $60 million per season.
This lucrative deal also includes a substantial signing bonus and equity in the team.
To introduce Messi to America, Inter Miami organized a grand event like no other. A sold-out crowd at DRV PNK Stadium in Miami awaited his arrival, where he was introduced by none other than former soccer star David Beckham.
However, the event experienced a delay of almost two hours due to a storm. Nonetheless, the show went on and included a video featuring renowned celebrities such as Steph Curry, Tom Brady, and DJ Khaled extending their warm welcome to the Argentine superstar in the United States.
Among the star-studded celebrities present, Messi’s wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, stole the show with her eye-catching hot-pink pants.

The family’s presence further enhanced the event’s significance. Inter Miami’s official Twitter account shared images of Messi and his family arriving at the presentation, generating excitement among fans.
Inter Miami currently finds themselves in last place in the MLS standings. However, their upcoming game against Cruz Azul in the Leagues Cup group stage presents an opportunity for a turnaround.
Although it remains uncertain when Messi will make his debut for the team, it is expected that his presence will propel Inter Miami out of the basement and towards success in Major League Soccer.
