Argentinian superstar Lionel Messi will not debut at Inter Miami before the end of July. Even for the club’s official presentation of the star, Miami fans will have to wait a long time.
The Argentine superstar announced his next destination after the expiration of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain.
‘I have decided to join Inter Miami’ – the 35-year-old World Cup-winning star’s words sparked excitement among Messi fans in the United States.
But the agreement has not yet been completed. Maybe it will take a while’ – and with Messi’s existing commitment to the Argentina national team, American fans will have to be a little more patient.
However, the ticket prices for the matches in which Messi is likely to play have already started to increase. In addition, the player’s social media fans around the world are now flocking to Miami’s social media accounts. A source close to the mediation of Messi’s transfer told AFP news agency that there is still a lot of work to be done on the deal.
First, Messi’s contract to join the Major Soccer League (MLS) must be executed. And it takes quite a bit of time to create a contract that conforms to the structure and rules of North American leagues.
MLS must first reach a collective bargaining agreement with the players’ union. There are salary and other issues that require lawyers on both sides to work diligently with their time.
‘We are pleased with Messi’s comments that he will join Major League Soccer and Inter Miami this summer,’ the league said. However, much work remains to conclude a formal agreement. We look forward to welcoming one of the greatest stars in football history to our league.’
