Lionel Messi wants to win more titles with Inter Miami, hopes MLS clubs use ‘The Herons’ as example moving forward
Lionel Messi is as motivated as ever to win with Inter Miami and hopes to add more to an already illustrious trophy cabinet.
Former England defender Rio Ferdinand on Sunday said current superstars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are “handing over their crown” as the world’s best footballer to teenage France sensation Kylian Mbappe.
“He is the guy who will be standing up on that Ballon d’Or podium in years to come. Easy,” the former Manchester United stopper-back Ferdinand was quoted as saying by BBC.

“I hope my old club is chasing him. He has that connection with Paul Pogba too,” he added.
