On Sunday, British media broke the sensational news that PSG superstar Lionel Messi was very close to a move to Inter Miami next season. According to sports portals, Messi would sign with the MLS team after the end of the World Cup.
However, Argentine representatives rejected the news, calling the reports fake news. One of the attacker's representatives, Marcelo Mendez, commented on the sensational news for CNN saying:
"It's a lie, it's fake news. There are no negotiations between Lionel and Inter Miami to join them next season."
The captain of the Argentine national team is in Qatar representing his national team, in what will most likely be the last World Cup for the former Barcelona player. At the same time, Messi is playing the last season stipulated in his contract with PSG. This raises even more questions over the Argentine's next move.
"Pleshti" scored a fantastic goal in the challenge against Mexico, leading Argentina to a very important 2-0 victory. After the shock defeat against Saudi Arabia in the first match of the group stage, Argentina has rekindled the hopes of qualifying for the next stage.
We remember that Leo Messi has never managed to lift the World Cup, despite having triumphed with Argentina in the Copa America. The striker has won a total of 40 trophies in his career, at club and national level.
Meanwhile, sports media reports indicate that apart from Leo Messi, Inter Miami is also interested in the services of Fàbregas and Suárez. The club in which he is co-owner and David Beckham seeks to build a qualitative team of players, thus increasing the general level of the American football championship, Major League Soccer.
