Lionel Messi all set to join Inter Miami after leaving PSG

Football legend Lionel Messi has decided to join Major League Soccer (MLS) side Inter Miami after parting ways with French Ligue 1 champions Paris St-Germain (PSG).

However, Messi’s decision to join Inter Miami has surprised many fans and experts. Earlier, it was expected that he would join Saudi Arabia or Barcelona in the next season. 

As per reports, the Argentina superstar also rejected a lucrative offer from Al-Hilal which offered him over $ 1 Billion. A move to Saudi would have got him to a chance to join great footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.

Messi, who led Argentina to World Cup glory in Qatar in December and has earned a record seven Ballon d’Or awards, won the Ligue 1 title in his two seasons with PSG as well as the French Super Cup in 2022.

Messi, who played his final game for PSG over the weekend, was linked with a return to Barcelona but the Spanish club have had their hands tied due to LaLiga’s financial fair play rules.
