Messi thinks he's the king of the United States, now he receives the worst possible low blow

Lionel Messi had the chance to become the athlete with the best salary in the world, but he decided to reject the offer of 600 million euros per season from Al-Hilal. The Saudi team was willing to 'go all out' for the captain of the Argentine National Team to join him with Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi league, but Leo gave priority to other things over economic matters and ended up making the decision. of going to Inter Miami to earn 54 million dollars a year.

That salary is, by far, the best in MLS, but now a player will arrive in the United States who will earn 14 times more than Messi. As incredible as it may seem, this is a reality and the athlete in question will become the highest-paid athlete in the history of sports with 700 million dollars for 10 years.

This is Shohei Ohtani, a 29-year-old Japanese baseball player who will sign a record contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers of the MLB. His nickname is unicorn and what makes him so special is that he not only excels as a hitter, but he is also lethal as a pitcher. This makes him an unprecedented and revolutionary player that has led him to win the MVP award in 2021 and 2023.

In the last few hours, he published a letter on his social networks that reads in an excerpt: “To all the fans and everyone involved in the world of baseball, I apologize for taking so long to make a decision. “I have decided to choose the Dodgers as my next team.”
