World Cup winner Lionel Messi is expected to be presented as an Inter Miami player during Sunday's event named 'The Unveil' by the Major League Soccer side.

Lionel Messi’s arrival to the United States of America nearly turned horrific as the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner nearly became the victim of a car crash while driving in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on Friday.

Miami has one more match before introducing the global soccer superstar, scheduled for Saturday against host St. Louis City in a matchup between the worst record in the Eastern Conference and the best in the West.

Lionel Messi hasn't been formally introduced as an Inter Miami CF player yet but his fans in the United States have wasted no time introducing themselves to him.

Since singing with the Florida club last month, the Argentine superstar has lit up anticipation around both the team and US professional soccer at large, especially among Miami's many South American residents

Argentine star Lionel Messi landed in Florida on Tuesday ahead of putting the final touches on his move to US Major League Soccer club Inter Miami.

Lionel Messi’s move to Inter Miami is a major coup for the club and his arrival in the United States is surely to generate a lot of excitement and attention.

Lionel Messi's next club, Inter Miami, announced Friday it will hold a presentation event, called 'The Unveil', on July 16 at its home stadium.

Martino, former coach of Messi with Barcelona and Argentina, said he had spoken to the seven-times Ballon d'Or winner and former Spain midfielder Busquets about their impending move to the Major League Soccer club

Martino, widely known as "Tata," coached Messi with both the Spanish club and his country's national team. He was most recently in charge of Mexico and previously worked in MLS with Atlanta United, winning the title in 2018

How his Inter Miami move might shape the future football’s business side

Busquets said in May that he would leave Barcelona in the summer at the end of his contract

The 35-year-old will sign a two-and-a-half year deal worth $50 million to $60 million per year with an option to extend until 2026, according to the Miami Herald

MLS is not subsidizing the contract, and Messi will not have the same option to buy an MLS team that David Beckham received when he moved to MLS in 2007, Sportico reported. That option turned into Inter Miami, of which Beckham is a co-owner

Messi, the Argentina captain, last week announced he would join the MLS side after reaching the end of his two-year deal with French giants Paris Saint-Germain.

Dinner, drinks and a selfie with Lionel Messi sounds like every football fan's dream, but Chinese police have warned it's just one of numerous scams surrounding his visit to Beijing.

According to Google, the country that searched ‘Inter Miami’ most this week was Bangladesh after the Argentine superstar Lionel Messi announced that he will join the American Major League Soccer (MLS) club Inter Miami.

"I knew he would come here, we had already talked about it. I told him he would be happy in Miami", said Neymar, who played alongside Messi at Barcelona from 2013 to 2017 and then for the last two seasons at PSG

Fans of football in the United States have gone into a frenzy since the announcement that Lionel Messi would be taking his talents to Inter Miami. The euphoria is something that has not been witnessed previously and is expected to usher in a new era of interest in the sport that is still growing in the nation.

On Wednesday morning, Inter's account had around 900,000 followers, a number which had already grown amidst rumours of Messi's possible arrival and less than 24 hours after the news broke, that number had skyrocketed to 5.7 million followers
