How will Inter Miami replace Lionel Messi?

Despite all the enthusiasm surrounding Lionel Messi’s spectacular debut season in Major League Soccer, Inter Miami have not yet demonstrated that they are a serious contender without the Argentine star. In the six MLS games that Messi has missed thus far in 2024, Inter Miami have only won two; in the eleven games that he has played, they have won eight.

But in the past week, that pattern has reversed, as Miami lost 3-1 to Atlanta with Messi starting again after an outstanding road victory against the Vancouver Whitecaps without him. Nevertheless, the Herons must discover a substitute for Messi’s inventiveness throughout the course of six games.
