Inter Miami players are on vacation at the moment, as their season ended in a dissapointment. Now, although Major League Soccer 2024 will begin at the end of February or beginning of March, Lionel Messi and Inter Miamihave already closed several friendlies in preparation for the new campaign.

The first match that was announced was against El Salvador, but as the days went by, others such as Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, Hong Kong and Vissel Kobe became official. Another one that was already announced by the press for February was Newell's, but the official account of Las Herons has not published anything about it yet.

Aside from this, what was reported was the madness caused by Lionel Messi's future visit to the aforementioned countries. However, those who surprised the most were the fans of Hong Kong, who made headlines in recent hours for proving to be a town truly crossed by the figure of Rosario.

Inter Miami will play a friendly in that territory on February 4 as part of the tour of Asia and the announcement of the match completely revolutionized the fans of that country. Although December didn't even come to an end, tickets went on sale 51 days early and sold out in less than an hour. Another event that allows us to measure the 'Messi Effect' at a global level.
