Lionel Messi - Announces MLS move Messi is finalizing a move to Inter Miami, simply telling reporters Wednesday "I'm going to Inter Miami", per Diario Sport. Impact While the deal reportedly hasn't been finalized and Inter has yet to officially announce the deal, it seems Messi will have a shorter offseason than most considering he just completed his Ligue 1 campaign with Paris Saint-Germain. For the French club, the world-class striker racked up 16 goals on 129 shots (57 on target) and 16 assists, including another four goals and four assists in Champions League action. Messi will look to save the season of the flagging Miami club, which currently sits dead last in the Eastern Conference standings and recently parted ways with manager Phil Neville. Based on a rumored July timeline, Messi could see action in upwards of 16 matches for the club, giving current leaders Denis Bouanga and Hany Mukhtar at least a 10-goal lead in the Golden Boot race.
