Messi likely to prolong Miami stay until after 2026
The Straits Times
|September 19, 2025
Lionel Messi is set to remain at Inter Miami beyond the 2026 World Cup after he and the club agreed to extend their contract, according to a source close to the matter.
-
The deal would ensure that the 38-year-old Argentinian superstar remains in competitive action until and after the quadrennial show piece hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.
An official announcement is expected within the next two weeks, the source told AFP on Sept 17 and would mean Messi ending his career in Major League Soccer (MLS).
Messi moved to Miami in 2023 after an unhappy spell at Paris Saint-Germain, but most of his stellar career was spent at Barcelona, where he played from 2004 to 2021 after coming through the youth system at the Spanish giants.
At Barcelona, he won the La Liga title 10 times and lifted the Champions League trophy on four occasions.
