Despite the announcements, Argentinian footballer Lionel Messi could start the match against Cruz Azul from the bench, Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham announced before this match.
Messi was presented in Miami on Sunday, and besides the announcement that he could play in the next match in the MLS league against Cruz Azul, his performance in this match is questionable.
The co-owner of the first league team from the MLS league, David Beckham, points out before this match that he is not sure how ready Messi is for this match.
“We don’t know if Messi will start this game or if he will get less minutes. We have to take care of his physical fitness. He did not prepare with the team, so we have to make sure that he is fully ready for new challenges after the rest. “He almost arrived in Miami and after the first training sessions, his condition is at a satisfactory level,” Beckham said.
The co-owner of Inter points out that he expects a great atmosphere at the match in Miami, where all the tickets are sold out, and the most expensive ticket at this match was 110 thousand dollars.
Whether Inter fans will see Messi on Friday will be decided by coach Tata Martino in agreement with the player.
“I think Leo and Tata (Martino) will decide when and if they play on Friday, but the atmosphere here will be great and we hope to win.”
