Messi: Inter Miami To Be Last Stop as Player

On Wednesday, Inter Miami star and Argentina's international Lionel Messi said that the MLS side is the final club in his career as a player.

He also denied the reports about finalizing his career in a club in his home country. 

The 36-year-old World Cup champion said: “I think Inter Miami is going to be my last club. Today I think it is going to be my last club,” 

During his interview with ESPN, he opened up about leaving Europe and moving to the US, explaining: "It was a difficult step to leave Europe to come here,” he said. “Having become a world champion helped a lot, and also to see things differently. But I don’t think about it. I try to enjoy. That’s why I enjoy everything much more, because I am aware that there is less and less to go and I have a good time.”

He added: "I have a good time at the club, I am lucky enough to have teammates and friends (Luis Suárez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, all former Barcelona players) by my side."

“I had a good time in the national team, where I have teammates and friends too."

“I enjoy the little details that I know that when I don’t play anymore, I’m going to miss,” he added. “My whole life I did this. I love playing ball and I enjoy training, day-to-day life and match days. And yes, there is always the fear that everything will end.”

Messi is preparing with his country's team to compete in the Copa América in the United States.
