Inter Miami boss Gerard Martino has admitted that he is unsure how limited Lionel Messi’s time at Inter Miami would be after their exit from the MLS Cup playoffs. Messi joined the club in 2023 and helped them win the Leagues Cup and Supporter’s Shield this year. The 37-year-old would also become the club’s leading goalscorer with 33 to his name from 38 matches and also contributed with 18 assists.
Messi’s contract with the club will end in the summer of 2025 and Martino has admitted that there is a question of time passing with the superstar at the club after the loss to Atlanta United. The Miami boss feels that the progress of the club is important at the moment. Martino feels that the objectives of the club have been modified and they can compete for titles next year.
“I actually don’t know how limited [Messi’s time in this league] is. There is a question of time passing, but I would not dare to say that it is so short. If you look at the context in which this began, it seems to me that the progress of the club is important.”
“The comparison of the last game of last season, back in October, with today’s third game in the playoffs and this bitterness that we all have for not having progressed, is clear that the club’s objectives have been modified and I think there is no reason for the club not to continue trying next year. What happened this year, the bad and the good in general have been better than everything that happened last year and I would say even from the entire life of the club,” said Martino.
Messi had a fantastic season for Miami this season as they bulldozed through the Eastern Conference before their exit in the playoffs. Messi would score 23 goals and 13 assists in 24 matches to cap off his second season with the club.
The Argentine maestro’s future at club and country level remain uncertain at the moment as he will play for Miami now in 2025 if he stays with the club. Messi will be part of Argentina’s World Cup qualifiers this month.
