Inter Miami's Lionel Messi has been named Major League Soccer Player of the Month for April after showcasing exceptional form following his return from injury. The Argentina international had missed four games due to a hamstring issue before making a comeback on April 6.
Since his return, Messi, aged 36, has been in scintillating form, contributing six goals and four assists in just four games, which led to him clinching his first MLS Player of the Month award. Miami coach Gerardo 'Tata' Martino expressed his lack of surprise at Messi's outstanding performances.
