Football superstar Lionel Messi has completed his move from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and now the World Cup-winning Argentine captain is set to make his Major League Soccer (MLS) debut for Inter Miami.
The star forward survived a car accident during his first week in the US and the team had a big scare.
According to reports, Messi narrowly escaped being hit by a car after his car jumped a red light and went to make a left turn.
Messi will earn $60 million a year, which includes his salary, a stake in Inter Miami and a signing bonus. That contract runs from July 1, 2023, to the end of December 2025.

Earlier this week, photos and videos of Messi visiting a local grocery store went viral on various social media platforms. The superstar footballer was forced to leave the shop after locals swarmed him with selfie requests.
Inter Miami will be Messi’s third professional club after Barcelona and PSG.
