Messi receives the worst news from United States, days before his debut at Inter Miami

Lionel Messi paralyzed the entire world a couple of weeks ago, when he confirmed his signing for Inter Miami, when there was more talk of a possible return to FC Barcelona. Now, he has found out some of the worst news he could receive.

Lionel Messi left PSG after two seasons and was no longer involved in the uncomfortable situation of being relegated by the board itself so that the figure of Kylian Mbappé shines above the rest. The Parisian team not only assigned the penalties and the captaincy to the French, but also offered him a million-dollar renewal that closed at 72 million euros per year. However, now Leo would also surpass him in economic terms.

As if the victories of the Flea over Donatello were not enough both in the Qatar 2022 World Cup and in The Best and Laureus awards, now the man from Rosario will also earn more than Mbappé per season. His annual salary is 50 million euros, but the contract contemplates extra earnings such as his shares in the club, royalties from TV rights or the sale of MLS shirts and merchandising, among others.

Which are the bad news?

In the MLS Eastern Conference, made up of 15 teams, Inter Miami is in last place, with only 15 points out of 51 possible. In addition, with the passing of time, David Beckham's men could even be eliminated from the Playoffs even before Lionel Messi plays a few minutes.
