Before facing Inter Miami, Chiellini's message to Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi and Inter Miami have an important commitment for this new MLS date and it is against the current LAFC champion. Gerardo Martino's team wants to continue adding points for this new season and hopes to place themselves in a great way on their visit to the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. However, some LAFC footballers are already talking about Messi and company.

The arrival of Lionel Messi has changed the panorama of the American team and now everything seems possible with the Argentine. After winning the La Leagues Cup title, the club already has 4 points in the last two MLS dates and wants to continue achieving points that will bring it closer to the great goal of reaching the playoffs, something very complex indeed.

In the run-up to the match, the former Juventus defender took advantage of his experience confronting Rosario and warned: “We can't just focus on Messi. The game is Los Angeles FC against Inter Miami. If we want to play one-on-one against Messi, then it's impossible to win, but I think LAFC could beat Miami as a team nonetheless."

Did Carlos Vela talk about Messi?

The Mexican striker, franchise player for Los Angeles FC, was asked if he believed Lionel would become more dominant than Ibrahimovic had been in MLS at the time. However, Vela replied: “Zlatan did dominate, but he didn't win anything. Messi has won in less time, they are not things that can be compared. They are different players, in different situations. What do you want me to say?".
