Apple and Adidas are also involved in the Inter Miami deal, wherein part of the deal includes Messi earning a share of Apple's revenue generated by the MLS Season Pass. Adidas is also offering Messi a share of their profits resulting from his arrival in the MLS. @TheAthleticFC

Supposedly, Messi's father said the decision will come today.

His wife downplayed idea of living in the gulf area (saudi arabia) also.

Barcelona dont have the Money.

Seems like it may happen today.

He shouldn't go back to Barca, always seems like it never goes well when a big time player returns to a club.

Would be wild to see him in the MLS.

If you’re Lionel Messi, quality of life has to be the biggest thing for you at this point. Miami vs. Saudi Arabia is so easy. He doesn’t even have to speak any English to be fully comfortable in Miami.

Those financials are hilarious, but he's gonna sell out stadiums in every city. Places like Houston or NE which have wretched attendance gonna be checking the calendar to see if Miami is coming to town.

Antonella didn’t want to live in Saudi Arabia so it was never going to happen

I will absolutely be checking to see if/when Miami comes to Nashville. It will be absolutely insane wherever they go. Especially this first year.

Meh, Fab has been consistently whiffing on the Messi stuff. He said last December that a deal was already in place for him to stay at PSG. He's been refusing to even mention Inter Miami in his Messi reporting until like a week ago even though American reporters have been mentioning Miami as an option since January.

The Messi simps will be unbearable. I’ll never forget the Copa Centenario Final at MetLife. 95% of that stadium was Argentina.
