Lionel Messi is without a doubt, the best or second best player in all of history. If he was already one a few years ago, Lionel was crowned by winning the 2022 World Cup in Qatar with Argentina.

In the United States, the sixth edition of the People's Choice Awards was presented. This event rewards many celebrities in different fields, from music and cinema to sports. In this case, naturally, Lionel Messi was nominated for the "athlete of the year" award.

Among the nominees there was a lot of talent, as they were pure celebrities: Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Sabrina Ionescu, Coco Gauff, Simone Biles and finally, Travis Kelce. Although Lionel Messi was one of the main favorites, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce won the award.

What's next for Messi and Inter Miami?

Beyond the People's Choice Awards anecdote, the reality is that Lionel Messi and Inter Miami are fully focused on their debut in Major League Soccer this Wednesday, February 21. Messi and the Florida team will play at the DRV PNK Stadium against Real Salt Lake, where they will try to start the season in the best possible way, with three points.

Let's remember that last season, despite improving with Messi, they failed to qualify for the Major League Soccer playoffs, and this year they hope that will not be the case!
