Lionel Messi ‘will LEAVE Inter Miami in 2025

Lionel Messi has no intention of renewing his contract with Inter Miami and will leave the club in 2025 to head back to Newell’s Old Boys, according to reports in Spain.

Messi has taken US soccer by storm since heading to Miami in the summer, scoring 11 goals in his first 12 games and helping Inter land its first ever trophy in the Leagues Cup.

It has been a whirlwind of a start for the 36-year-old, who has also resurrected the team’s hopes of snatching a place in this season’s MLS playoffs.

With Messi in their ranks from the start, Miami will expect to avoid the battle for playoffs and qualify more comfortably over the next two campaigns, before his contract expires in 2025.

Instead, Messi is reportedly set to leave Miami and seal an emotional return to boyhood club Newell’s, where he plans to bring the curtain down on his legendary career.
