Messi joined Miami as a free agent in July after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired. The 36-year-old has gone on to become one of the biggest stars in Major League Soccer since his arrival.

It was only in December that Messi played a key role in helping Argentina win the World Cup in Qatar for the first time since 1986 and just months later, Miami secured one of the biggest signings in MLS history with Messi’s move to South Florida.

The signing of the Argentina captain led to a significant increase in demand for Miami jerseys and cccording to The New York Times, Beckham himself found it difficult to get his hands on one.

Beckham was forced to wait to get a ‘Messi 10’ Miami jersey to send as gifts to friends and family. This was reportedly due to Adidas selling out of the jerseys in a quicker time than the manufacturer was able to make.

Messi’s start to life in the US began almost perfectly when he scored a stoppage-time free-kick against Cruz Azul on July 22 in the first game in the Leagues Cup a competition Miami went on to win, with Messi scoring 10 goals in his seven appearances.

In terms of the MLS, Messi made his debut on August 27 against the New York Red Bulls. The former Barcelona star scored in a 2-0 win, with what would go on to be his only goal in MLS in his maiden season in Miami.
