Lionel Messi joined Inter Miami in the summer of 2023

Lionel Messi moved to the USA after gaining a lot of success in Europe. He was one of the best players of his era and won multiple titles with Barcelona and PSG.

After winning the FIFA World Cup 2022, everyone was unsure about Messi’s next chapter. A few Saudi clubs were chasing the Argentine player but he decided to move to the MLS club.

Upon his arrival at Inter Miami, Messi’s shirt sales were hitting a spike. Fans were happy to see the world’s best in their country. He gave his fans a gift by winning the Leagues Cup and this was the first-ever trophy won by Inter Miami.

Lifestyle magazine Vogue has pieced together a list of the top 15 fashion pieces that defined the last 12 months. This chart had Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami jersey.

Vogue said, “Immediately following the Messi announcement, the generic Inter Miami jersey, in an unexpected shade of un–Barbie pink, sold out, giving rise to a rich bootleg industry. Now, nearly five months later, the official Messi jersey, sporting his number 10, remains wait-listed in most sizes on the Adidas website.”

Alongside Messi’s Inter Miami shirt sit Nike Shox, cat-eye sunglasses and underwear that is worn as outerwear.

Messi has continued to attract A-list guests – such as LeBron James and Selena Gomez – to Inter Miami fixtures and alongside his record-breaking shirt sales in Florida, Inter Miami are also increasing ticket prices for 2024 in a bid to maximise profits from games that sell out in the blink of an eye.

The recent New York auction of Messi’s jerseys catapulted his popularity globally, with fans flocking to Miami to witness the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner in action.
