Messi’s impact in inter Miami
Freed from the demands of European football, both his on-field performances and his expressions off the field have been consistently marked by an air of unbridled joy.
This newfound sense of liberation culminated in Inter Miami securing their inaugural Leagues Cup championship—a historic achievement for the team.

The numbers that come to light paint a somewhat somber picture for President Joan Laporta.

How much money has Leo Messi generated for inter Miami?
Leo Messi’s arrival in Miami has had a huge financial impact. Just from ticket sales, it’s estimated around $265 million has been earned.
The streaming service Apple TV gained 300,000 new subscribers, making about $29.7 million. Messi’s Inter Miami jerseys sold so much that stores had to refill stock after just a few days.
