Inter Miami’s playful jab at journalists to announce Messi’s arrival

Inter Miami posted a video mocking journalists to announce Lionel Messi’s signing with the MLS team.

Today, MLS gained the biggest soccer star it’s seen since David Beckham. Lionel Messi has agreed to a contract with Inter Miami.

Ahead of the agreement, there had been rumors that he may make that move when his contract with PSG expired, but many people, including media outlets, doubted it would really happen.

With options like Saudi Arabia offering loads of money and the enticing possibility of going back to Barcelona, it seemed unlikely that the United States would be the option Messi chooses, especially for those who don’t take soccer in America as seriously. But of course, Major League Soccer had the last laugh as Messi has signed a two-year deal with Inter Miami. And so, to announce Messi’s arrival, they released this video taking a jab at those who doubted the move would really happen.
