He's not happy? Lionel Messi gives a low blow to the MLS and paralyzes the United States

It is clear that although he is about 36 years old, Lionel Messi is still the most influential player in the world along with Cristiano Ronaldo. Since his arrival in the United States, Lionel Messi has had nothing but good words about the country and the MLS. Today, everything changed.

However, Lionel Messi has attracted attention with his statements that the MLS was a minor league. The comment from the former FC Barcelona footballer occurred within the framework of an interview with Star +, where he commented on his priorities for the future with the Albiceleste team.

In principle, the world champion with Argentina said: “I said it several times and it is a reality. I will always try to compete to the maximum and I am the first to know when I can be there and when I can't.” Then he assured: "I am also aware that I went to a minor league, but a lot of things happen because of the way you face it and compete."

Without a doubt, these statements did not go down in the best way in the MLS, which has given Lionel Messi a predominant role in recent times by making him the main image of the championship. As if this were not enough, the River Plate attacker pockets around 50 million dollars per season in the American team, a figure that places him as one of the best paid in the world, below Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar in Saudi Arabia. Despite this, the recent Ballon d'Or winner still believes that the United States championship still has a lot to improve.
