Messi will make his bow in an MLS fixture this weekend after a stunning run of games in the Leagues and US Open Cup games so far
Despite the football world's attention being on the Saudi Pro League right now, Lionel Messi was one superstar who went against the grain and opted to join Inter Miami in the ML. And it's safe to say his time in America so far has been a roaring success.
Alongside his former Barcelona team-mates Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, Messi has helped spearhead a new era for Inter Miami while scoring an incredible 10 goals in seven games. The 36 year-old led Miami to their first piece of silverware at the weekend, scoring in the Leagues Cup final against Nashville as Miami won 10-9 on penalties following a 1-1 draw.
Despite Messi's huge impact in the MLS, he is still actually yet to play in the league itself with his seven games so far all coming in cup competitions - however that will change when Miami meet Red Bull New York on Saturday. With Messi once again firmly in the limelight eight months on from his World Cup triumph, sportswear giant Adidas is commemorating his impact on the game with a fresh new boot pack.
