Just hours before his debut, Lionel Messi receives the worst news from the United States

What everyone was looking forward to happened: Lionel Messi signed his contract with Inter Miami. The man from Rosario was announced on social networks this Saturday, July 15, and the first images of the best player in the world with the pink Garzas shirt began to appear. As expected, he will wear number 10.

Now, everything happened in the middle of a trip to the Inter squad, which is why he could not "celebrate" the announcement with his new teammates. Messi trained alone at the club this morning before signing the contract and is now looking forward to his new team's match against Saint Louis City (Western Conference leader) as a visitor. For obvious reasons, he will follow you from Miami from afar.

Now, in the midst of all the commotion over Leo's announcement, Inter's next rival took a drastic 'anti Messi' measure. And it is that St. Louis prohibited the visiting fans from entering the stadium with shirts from the Argentine National Team, Inter Miami, Barcelona, Newell's, PSG and even Grandoli! The pointers from the west want to feel the locality at any cost and they do not want the presence of Rosario to be felt on their court.

Inter Miami hasn't won in 10 MLS games

The arrival of Lionel Messi occurs in a difficult present for Las Garzas in the United States championship: of the last 10 games, they have lost seven and drawn the last three. The last time he had three-pointers in MLS was on May 13 against the New England Revolution.
