Lionel Messi is set to feature in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup with Inter Miami, marking a significant milestone for both the player and the club. Inter Miami, fresh from their first-ever MLS Supporters’ Shield victory, has reportedly secured a spot in the revamped tournament as one of the host nation’s invitees. This historic participation, anticipated to be confirmed soon, comes after Messi’s remarkable season in the U.S., where his leadership and performance, including crucial goals, helped Miami top the MLS standings.
The tournament, slated to begin in June 2025, will feature top clubs from around the world. Messi’s Miami, alongside the Seattle Sounders, will represent Major League Soccer (MLS) on the global stage, offering fans the chance to see him compete against elite international teams once again. Matches will be held in various iconic U.S. stadiums, including Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, providing the perfect backdrop for Inter Miami’s debut at the tournament.
As anticipation builds, Messi’s presence is expected to draw significant global attention, solidifying his impact not just in American soccer but on the world stage.
