🚨 FULL REACTION 🚨 Lionel Messi is set to join Inter Miami CF in the MLS 😱 | ESPN FC

1. Messi is coming to retire hes golden era is officially over. We will get his residual talent whatever he has left in the tank.

2. Messi knew he was finished when psg played Bayern . Bayern sent him to the retirement league 😂

3. Fans started hating Messi more after beating France in the world cp

4. As Ronaldo #1 fan I’m telling you ppl now Messi is about to put a hurting on this mls league lmao

5. Florida is a swamp , he shoulda went to NY , a REAL international city

6. Ngl he is the goat 🐐. But miami??? They need defense more then this. Florida will stay purple not pink

7. Also amen to Craig on the ticket prices 😂😂

8. Major League Football

9. Messi completed football he’s allowed to play in America now

10. He knows Florida is one of the freest places in the world. Good choice

11. And ungrateful fans, Frank forgot that

12. I think because it is also close to the Bahamas lol. I'm sure he would probably get an island.

13. I want to hear you make fun of Messi for retiring at 35 years old

14. At 35 Ronaldo was playing in champion league and Europe but Messi

15. Man, I took a chance and bought 4 front row Red bull vs Miami tickets at like $70. Looks like that worked out

16. This is like playing with Man United one week and deciding to sign for Rochdale.😮

17. This is HUGE for soccer fans in the USA and for the Latino community in Florida. Moreover, this is a BIG win for North America and South America 🎉

18. this is the end of MLS…
    Beckham is so win-greedy that he will bring 4 former Barca players with multiples of silverware to Miami to just slaughter the league, raise rates, payscales and prices, and put pro soccer out of reach.
    Congrats David Beckham.
    Guess I'll start watching bassmasters.

19. In the long term Messi will make way more than what he turned down.

20. Messi is the most famous person in the World. FYI

21. FC Barcelona's reaction to Messi joining the MLS is priceless 🤣

22. Personally I agree with Messi's decition : I'd rather play in the USA and earn $5 than playing in saudi Arabia and earn $500

    Why play in a camel League among part time construction workers 🤷😂😂😂😂😂

23. I've noticed most sports programs don't really mention this: Inter Miami has the biggest futbol hinchada (ultras) in the USA, of course leaded by Argentines. So Messi will also have that feel of a crowd singing a bunch of Argentine songs that he already knows, just for him.

24. Football fan pls 😅

25. MESSI JOINS MLS,,STAY WAITING FOR THE DUET OF MESSI FEAT THE ROCK IN THE LATEST FILM 2024 GANGSTAR MIAMI CITY

    WARM GREETINGS AND LOVE FROM INDONESIA 🇮🇩🇮🇩

26. Messi is clever, he knows the WC is in US, he will build a fan base for ARG and he will travel far less for WC qualification games

27. This could be a huge deal for US soccer in the long run. The excitement for the sport in this country has been on a steady incline but messi being here will make it a must see for a lot of otherwise casuals

28. King leo👑

29. why messi dont go to arab? is arab not peaceful or what?

30. Messi is in a moment of his life that he will not accept anymore haters. If he goes to Barcelona he will still having a lot of cules fan hating him if Barca do not win every match it play. Same happened in PSG

31. Psg fans are gonna be remembered as the worst of the world

32. As much as I love this for the MLS, the US is so capitalistic that the average Messi fan will be unable to buy the $600 ticket to see him.

33. W

34. PSG fans in France are french people. Messi presence is the reminder that they've lost world cup last year. There's no better explanation to treat Messi the way they did. I can't say french people and psg fans don't like football so this is my point about Messi time in France. Definitely a waste of Messi's time in France.

35. This is totally a marketing/branding move and it’s a smart one that works mutually for all parties involved. The US has more sponsors and a “deeper” market than Saudi Arabia. Beckham’s move to LA Galaxy secured his spot in American pop culture, and he has remained a popular icon still to this day.

    The Saudis may have offered him an extraordinary lump sum to be apart of their vanity project, but the Americans are offering longevity and perpetual recognition—which is an invaluable capital. This will also boost the popularity of football in America significantly.

36. It's about family, hardware, relevancy, and legacy. He's making a Beckham move. MLS is the fastest growing soccer league in the world. He has a percentage of ownership in Inter Miami and has a chance to start his own MLS team. Everyone's talking checkers while Messi is playing chess. He'll go back and retire at Barca like Henry did at Arsenal.

37. Messi taking his talents to south beach! Or Ft. Lauderdale 😅

38. QUALITY OF LIFE! I guess he never visited Saudi are you out of your mind you can talk about everything except quality of life.

39. Except he got carried by getting penalties throughout all the World Cup

40. The ESPN FC crew is always the most miserable group of people I've ever seen on TV. never change

41. Broke Club Barcelona couldn’t afford him, sad and sour ending to that connection between Messi and Barcelona

42. The way frank said soccer was so funny

43. I guess the French are just effin Racist

44. Please stop calling it soccer, you have the best fútbol player in history be respectful

45. when messi leaves oh wow what a great choice whereas on the other side only hate for ronaldo wow espn ur truly a pessi fan

46. Everyone looks very energetic on this episode. Lovely to see grown men gush over Messi. Lolc

47. Messi is done he went to Miami which lowest club in the world he is not ready for Competative football

48. Paris is really not as nice of a city as people try to make it out to be. Happy to be welcoming Messi to America 🙏🏼

49. My hope is Messi will see this as a 4 year project where he puts a finishing touch on his legacy as the goat by somehow bringing up MLS to a top 5 league level and a curtain call during the next world cup

50. Great news for everyone

51. Lionel Messi is the greatest to ever play the beautiful game he has the awards all of them has the money hes here for the large amount of Argentina and hispaníc culture that Miami also has to offer, he never learned French at this point he just want to live life with his family and play football not the other way around. Cannot wait for him to arrive!🐐

52. I just hope he doesn't get shot tbh

53. He should have gone to USL to prop that league up!!! He and Renaldo both should have gone to the USL!!!

54. LETS NOT FORGET ZLATAN!!!! Zlatan was killin the MLS and i bet if he came back now he would do the same, but Messi will be huge no doubt!! Renaldo should have made this move!!!

55. He is 35 and a smaller player and he is playing against better athletes on the average. He isn't Zlatan who is a giant who was physically to much for even MLS players to handle!!! Plus one of the weaknesses of MLS is passing and he is going to have to do a lot more of the heavily lifting to score.

56. End of the NFL finally !!!!!!!!!!

57. Beckham is close

58. Regardless of what happens, Barcelona should give him a ceremony once he retires

59. The quality of MLS defenders and watching how giovinco made them look useless. I think messi will be able to play for another 4 or 5 years easily.

60. This move might be our only chance to really see Messi start speaking in English a bit 😂

61. I’m sad for football too

62. Messi…OLD GEEZER !!!

63. ESPN FC these are the commenters you need

64. Come on Frank. Your French people couldn’t enjoy the best player of our time.

65. It because of the wc , people of paris started to hate him ,2nd season was good sarting untill wc

66. We weren't In The MLS At Age 35

67. Messi choosing quite life in miami. MLS Fans buying all tickets of Intermiami. 😂

68. LIKE MY COMMENT IF U HAVE SEEN THE FULL MESSI INTERVIEW AND CAN HEAR THESE GUYS LYING

69. Ronaldo best

70. It's funny when you consider that the seria A POTY(player of the year) only managed half of Messi stats for the season in terms of goals and assists. And he is being praised for his impact but Messi is being criticized for not showing his best level. That's standards right there

71. GOD IS IN HOME

72. People have no idea how big the US market is and can be for the football world..Saudi Arabia don’t have the market, they just have filthy rich billionaires playing with their money

73. Sebastian Salazar is baked out of his mind, look at his eyes 😀

74. who cares..😂😂😂😂

75. craigs hip to how greedy america is. god bless you sir

76. Messi just realised that he is too old to play in Europe well done

77. He needed sun Florida has that like Barcelona

78. Worst move ever but its clrearly to market 2026. If that ….. didnt accuse R9 it would have been a treat to see him with Messi in the US.

80. I hope he plays in Singapore later in his career.

81. This is different than when any other star player has come to the US… the US is a soccer admiring country now

82. So many people who mocked Ronaldo for moving to some Arab club, where are they now?

83. Messi Finished at the age of 35 and in burger 🍔 league so sad

84. Why espn never said Messi flopped at farmers league & runway to mls.Not much people gonna watch mls he will flop again like psg

85. Although Messi is getting some 'stats', actually Messi is deteriorating the whole team's performance.

86. Craig on the prices 👏👏👏 2k bro for Messi ? Ppl in Paris would pay a croissants and 5 euro to watch bro

87. They didn’t get global media attention. But Giovinco in 2015 with Toronto and Almiron in 2017 with Atlanta are in my opinion much bigger signings. Messi is still unbelievably great at 35. But Giovinco showed MLS could sign good international players in their prime (Dos Santos brothers, Lodeiro, Ruidiaz, etc.). Bradley started this before Giovinco, but as an American coming back to his country’s shared home league, doesn’t have the same impact as an in prime Italian international Juventus player. Almiron, now in Champions League, lead to young profit-making players like current World Cup winner Almada, plus Rossi with LAFC and Brenner in Cincinnati. We’ve had Henry, Kaka, David Villa, Ibra, Beckham, Gerrard, Pirlo, etc. before. And while Messi is better, and has obvious name recognition, I don’t think it will change to the extent that Beckham did back when, Giovinco in 2015, or Almiron in 2017.

88. If this Inter Miami team had a YouTube channel it would be getting very many subscribers for messi

89. This is the greatest football player of all time. Him coming to MLS will make MLS massive revenue. To every city he goes ( in N.America) that team and owners will make some serious cake, cause every seat will be sold out. They will all want to get a glimpse of him, cause matter how you slice it he still plays at the highest level and he will crash these G league players in the MLS.

90. I always thought Cristiano would’ve done this and since he speaks English 😢

91. What a waste of talent.

92. I'm from Europe and I'm very upset. Messi is the g.o.a.t. and he still has a lot in him at 35. He didn't deserve to go to MLS yet. It's a pity that he and CR7 became such ''products' of a system that couldn't handle them because of their greatness. In fact, it's not so hard to put together a team of good and supportive young players around Messi like Argentina did. Messi expected some healthy negotiations with FCB or PSG, but not to be disrespected like that. This is how he was forced to go to one of the worst teams in MLS and play in a 'pink' shirt. No offence, but do you know any 'pinky' men's team that has ever won a big title? Of course not!

93. Inter Miami Instagram followers:
    Before Messi: 200K
    After Messi: 7.8 M 😮

94. Anyone know how many Argentinians are in Miami? I know there’s a lot of Cubans, but what about the rest of Latin America?

95. I was watching poeple got interview in Miami and then most of the poeple who got the interview didt know Who Messi is i m like oh ok ….🤔🤔😒😒😒

96. Paris is a dump

97. America must feel proud that a football legend stepped in their country. 😂 They can now get their head out of the gutter (basketball) and have a glimpse of the world outside.

98. It is a blessing that Messi is joining Inter Miami. It is like loving a sick dog and doing your best to nurture and heal it. Give me a sick dog and I will heal it. I love the challenge and seriously I have helped a few stray fur kids. If Messi can helped Inter Miami to win some trophies then he will be more than a legend. ❤

99. Messi will be welcomed with open arms in the US!

100. French people trying to defend paris 😂
