Few days before making his debut with Inter Miami, Lionel Messi's warning in MLS

Lionel Messi is just a few days away from joining Inter Miami and playing in Major League Soccer with his new team. The Argentinean player surprised everyone with this decision and, in the absence of his official presentation in Miami, it is expected that the player will arrive in great shape and try to rescue the season of David Beckham's club.

However, a few days before starting to play with the club, the Argentine player receives an unexpected warning from another star who has already been in the MLS and even became champion with his respective team. This is a player who was Messi's rival in Spain for many years and is now inactive, but with enough experience to issue a warning to the Argentine.

According to Gareth Bale, former Real Madrid and Los Angeles FC player, MLS "is much calmer. If you lose at Real Madrid, they crucify you, you go home and you're not happy. In contrast, in MLS, they are more accepting of a defeat. There are no consequences if you lose and you can't be relegated," he told BT Sport.

When could Messi make his debut with Inter Miami?

This week, one of Inter Miami's top shareholders, Jorge Mas, provided information about the imminent presentation and signing of Lionel Messi by the MLS franchise. Fans' calendars have set a date for the Argentinean's probable debut with the pink team: Friday, July 21 at the DRV PNK stadium in Fort Lauderdale and the opponent will be Cruz Azul from Mexico.
