Inter Miami have dropped a major hint that incoming superstar Lionel Messi will take up the shirt number he is synonymous with when he officially signs for the club.
The Floridan franchise stunned the football world by capturing the services of the 36-year-old legend and, although he is not yet a Herons player, their social media team made sure to mark the Argentine's birthday. In a best wishes message posted on Instagram, the representatives of the South Beach club posted a graphic that read 'Feliz Cumple', which simply translates as 'Happy Birthday.
Aside from the festivities, eagle-eyed observers will have also noticed that the 'le' at the end of the word had been highlighted in white and made to resemble the number '10'. Of course, Messi served Barcelona with distinction for 17 years, wearing this number for the majority of his time at Camp Nou.
