Lionel Messi is understood to be on the verge of joining MLS outfit Inter Miami.
The world's most iconic player and seven time Balon d'Or winner has elected to head to David Beckham's American club over a return to Barcelona and Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia. The MLS has been building in popularity in the last few years with 2022 being a record a year for football attendances in the USA.
The PSG man's move to the states is now expected to propel the MLS to even greater heights for both domestic and foreign audiences. Messi's proposed switch to Miami has also come at a time when the region is enjoying sporting success with Miami Heat competing in the NBA Finals and Florida Panthers making waves in the NHL.
