Inter Miami superstar Lionel Messi is acting as an agent for the MLS side. Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets followed their former Barcelona teammate to join the club last season.

The report says that Lionel Messi is in contact with his Argentine teammate and wants to build a strong team before the start of the upcoming season.
While the Boca Juniors defender is no longer in Argentina’s national team picture, he’s appeared 61 times for his country, with many of those outings coming alongside Messi. He competed at two World Cup tournaments, the first of which helped convince Manchester United to sign him in 2014.
Since his time in England, though, Rojo has developed a reputation for hot-headed behaviour. Last year, the Boca Juniors players kicked Nicolas De La Cruz in the head. He once allegedly threw a fire extinguisher in a tunnel bust-up.

It’s an issue Rojo said he’s tried to address through work with sports psychologists. “[It] helps me a lot, I am always in contact,” he told to TyC Sports in 2022. “I started because of the injuries, I felt I was doing all I could with the doctors, I followed the recovery stages and when I got back on the field I got injured again. I couldn’t figure it out.
“Since I started working with [the psychologist] the injuries have been less frequent and I felt good again on the pitch. He told me to trust in myself and in my body again.”
Inter Miami will look to strengthen their squad before the season begins. Rojo has a lot of experience and could add more quality to the unstable defence.
