Inter Miami's co-owner spills on how they wooed LionelMessi.
“We’re competing for the best player in the world with the powerhouses of global soccer and with endless money that we cannot compete with,” Mas said. “So, I had to try to find what makes Lionel Messi tick. What can we offer that someone else can’t?”
It was apparently the chance to make bigger waves that convinced the star forward that the U.S. should be his next move. “In this country, Lionel Messi has the opportunity to change the sport,” Mas said. “If he would have stayed at PSG, wasn’t gonna change the sport. If he returned to Barcelona, either. And going to Saudi, wasn’t gonna change the sport there.”
So far, Mas has been satisfied with his new player’s performance. “Lionel Messi is a competitive beast. What I’ve seen in the last week, just in small little details and examples of things that he’s done with his teammates at the training center is amazing. [We] have high expectations, but mine, so far, in this very short time period of interacting with him, I’ve been blown away,” he said.
