Lionel Messi has made an impressive start to life at Inter Miami with three goals in his first two appearances and the Argentina legend is also showing his generosity off the pitch
Lionel Messi’s arrival at David Beckham’s Inter Miami has not only brought immense talent to the team but also a spirit of generosity. After Miami’s impressive 4-0 win over Atlanta United, defender DeAndre Yedlin was spotted wearing a special gift from Messi himself.
Having been available as a free agent after his two-year stint at Paris Saint-Germain, Messi has made an instant impact in the USA. He scored a goal just minutes into his Miami debut against Cruz Azul with a perfect free-kick and continued his stellar performance in his second game, scoring twice and providing an assist in the team’s victory over Atlanta.
But it’s not just Messi’s on-field contributions that have caught the attention of his teammates, reports the Express US. The Argentine superstar has quickly become a favourite among his new teammates, presenting each of them with a unique present.
Yedlin, speaking to the media after the win, was seen wearing custom-made pink and black Beats by Dre headphones featuring the club’s badge. When asked about them, Yedlin revealed: “Yeah, that’s Messi. Messi got them for the team. I don’t know if he bought them, but he gave everybody headphones for his first game.”
