Lionel Messi is just weeks away from making his Inter Miami debut following his Paris Saint-Germain departure but is yet to actually link up with his new teammates.
Inter Miami owner Jorge Mas has identified a match against Mexican side Cruz Azul on July 21 for Messi's debut, but for now, the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner is just taking some time for himself to spend with family before his next chapter.
When Messi eventually does meet the players he'll be sharing the Miami dressing room with, they could be surprised by how he interacts. At least, that's how former colleague Achraf Hakimi felt when the pair first crossed paths at the beginning of the Argentina international's time in the French capital.
