Why Messi To Miami Makes Sense!
--:--
In what has already been a transfer window of historic proportions, Lionel Messi has booked his flight and signed for Inter Miami. The little Argentine will most likely be doing a team, at the bottom of their respective table, and will be a part of a club run by former Manchester United and Real Madrid icon, David Beckham. ‘Leo’ has opened up about this transfer, amidst rumours of his emphatic return to Barcelona. “I am protecting my family, and taking us all out of the spotlight.” After 18 years in European football, one can understand why the world-cup winner has taken this decision and ultimately, what else is there for him to do in Europe. He has won every trophy and competition he has played, including the recent COPA America, and of course the coveted 2022 FIFA World Cup. A transfer that took the world by surprise has ultimately been a personal gain for Messi.

The Saudi Pro League is doing everything it can to prove to the world that it can host the 2030 FIFA World Cup, and by pouring millions of Euros into improving their league, infrastructure, and the quality of the game, they just might have a point.
