We knew this was coming last year. He’ll join the MLS in 3 years or less.
Without proper contracts by Barcelona, Man City, or even Inter. He won't go in MLS.
He’d be dumb not to spend at least one season in the US. Zlatan was in the news and in commercials all the time in his stint here. Messi would be everywhere in US pop culture. The MLS itself should even pay him to come here because of how much it would benefit the league.
i doubt messi would care about being more in the media than he already is
Never seen a rich person not want more money. Man would be far and away the most endorsed athlete.

messi doesn't need the mls to be more popular in America dude is literally considered the goat of his sport. zlatan played in mls cus europe was done with him and he became the best player at like almost 40 the mls is a joke.
Believe it or not there are people who have no idea who Messi is here. I can guarantee he’d be on all the talk shows, commercials, Wheaties boxes, etc.
He doesn’t have to come to America until he’s tried other leagues in Europe, but he will be in the MLS eventually. The league is getting a lot better in terms of youth development. Also scouting in South America has gotten way better. We are seeing a lot of young talent brought here from Argentina, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador. If we didn’t have a ton of transfer restrictions and salary caps the league would grow substantially more, but competitive fairness and all that 🤷🏻♂️
