After over a month of hype following Lionel Messi’s decision to join MLS, Inter Miami has officially announced the historic signing courtesy of a rousing welcome video featuring the soccer megastar himself.
The MLS club released a 40-second clip on Saturday confirming Messi, 36, as an official member of its roster. The video shows a graffiti tagger spelling out the Argentinian icon’s last name before Messi eventually appears on-screen to deliver a message wearing his new pink and black kit.
