Messi is a few hours away from his official debut in Major League Soccer. The footballer has established himself in Miami as the team's Star reinforcement and already support for Inter to achieve its first title in history. 

 

Lionel Messi arrived this summer from PSG after not wanting to renew and David Beckham's project ended up convincing the Argentine footballer. Now, after his first month in Florida, Messi has already won Inter Miami's first official title and helped the club qualify for the US Open Cup final.

However, the biggest challenge will be the actions of the club and the Argentine in MLS. Inter Miami is far from reaching the playoffs and could be left out. However, the team arrives well with Messi, Busquets and Alba to attempt the feat.

 

Do Lionel Messi's goals count as official in MLS?

The answer is yes. FIFA recognizes MLS as an official and endorsed competition. New York will be the scene of the first game that the star from Rosario will have with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer. opposite will be the Red Bull team. Those led by "Tata" Martino will seek to recover in the league, where they appear as the worst team in the tournament. Messi has played eight games at Inter Miami, in which he has scored ten goals and won the Leagues Cup title after beating Nashville on penalties in the final.
