Lionel Messi joined Inter Miami in the summer of 2023 with the firm intention of further filling his trophy cabinet. An ambition that was palpable from the former Parisian’s first training session in Florida.
Lionel Messi has started his second consecutive season at Inter Miami in the best possible way. The Florida club leads the Eastern Conference standings. And the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner, who has scored 17 goals and provided 10 assists in 18 appearances in MLS, could also play with his team in the next Club World Cup which will take place next summer in the United States.
According to Marcathe performances of the American team could earn them an invitation to the competition organized by FIFA. Good news for the Hérons and the Pulga, who had to settle for a Leagues Cup and a modest 14th place in the league during the previous year.
“The team trained at 10 a.m., but he arrived three hours early”
But if the franchise club displays a comfortable lead of 8 points over Columbus Crew, its runner-up, it owes it largely to the arrival of the 2022 world champion. Indeed, the latter played a key role in the recruitment of its former Barca teammates, namely Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suarez. If we are to believe David Beckham, co-owner of Inter Miami, the Argentine genius announced the color from his first training session.
“His first day at the training center, he arrived at 6:50 in the morning, there was no one there except the one who was there to open the door for him. The team practiced at 10 a.m., but he arrived three hours early to prepare. He was in the weight room and he was warming up. At his age and with everything he’s accomplished in his career, you might expect him to slow down his work rate, but no, he’s a winner.”said the Spice Boy in a podcast with Rio Ferdinand.
