A New Chapter in Miami
Argentine Lionel Messi revealed that he had never felt happy during his two-year period in Paris Saint-Germain Football, and indicated that he is now flourishing inside and outside the stadium in Miami.
The Move to Inter Miami
The British Press Agency (BA Media) reported that Messi, 37, who won 8 times the Golden Ball Award, joined the American Inter Miami team, who is participating in the David Beckham-led project, coming from Saint-Germain in July 2023 after a turbulent period spent in the French capital.
A Tough Adapting Period
In an interview with Zain Lu, the broadcaster who works in Apple Music, Messi said: "coming to play with Inter Miami was an opportunity, and the way things developed during my last years in Paris, although it was a decision to take it because I should have left Barcelona, I passed two years I did not enjoy."
Finding Happiness in Miami
He added: "I never felt happy, whether in training or matches. I had difficulty adapting to all of this. I felt that I was invited to come to Inter because the club is in development, and it is very new, as it was created a few years ago."
A New Lease of Life
Messi, who helped Miami win the fans of the American League in 2024 and then out of the exclusionary roles against Atalanta United, said his family also listens to life in Florida.
A Family Affair
He said: "I liked the idea that I would come here and help the team to become a great club, and I also knew that this is the city in which my family and I will enjoy."
No Regrets
He added: "Although I did not know the city well because I came here a few times, I knew about it, because I had a family and friends visiting this city, and I thought the time was right, and I did not regret it, but on the contrary."
