Unforgettable Moment: Luis Suarez Joins Lionel Messi at Inter Miami’s Pre-Season Training, Smiling Together for the First Time! Exciting Friendly Against Cristiano Ronaldo Looms in Saudi Arabia.
Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have trained together for the first time with Inter Miami. This is because they have a busy training schedule coming up.
There are pictures and videos of their first training session together since they were at FC Barcelona. This is as they get ready for the MLS season.
Inter Miami will play their first of seven friendlies in just six days. Six of those games will be away from home.
The Herons will first play the men’s national team of El Salvador on January 19. Three days later, they will play FC Dallas at the Cotton Bowl.
After that, the Herons go on a big tour of Asia. On January 29, they play two games against Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia. On February 1, they play Cristiano Ronaldo and Al-Nassr.
After that, on February 4, Inter Miami meets the Hong Kong national team. After that, they go to Japan to play Vissel Kobe.
After that long trip, they will finally play Messi’s old team, Newell’s Old Boys, in Miami.
In just six days, on February 15, they play their first MLS game at home against Real Salt Lake.
There will be a lot of league games, but there will also be the League Cup, the US Open Cup, and the MLS Cup Playoffs if they make it that far.
That’s not all. Messi will also miss a lot of time during the Copa America in June and July.
Even if Argentina suddenly gets knocked out in the group rounds, Messi will not be able to play in the games against Columbus Crew and Nashville SC. He might also miss a game on the road against the Philadelphia Union because it’s five days before his first Copa America game.
These games will not happen if Argentina makes it to the Copa America finals, which they have done three of the last four times. He will also miss games away at Charlotte FC and FC Cincinnati. After all that football, Messi might want a short break. That means he might not be available for a home game against Toronto FC three days after the event finishes.
In conclusion, Lionel Messi will probably have to play football every month of the year if Inter Miami makes it to the MLS Cup Finals. That is, unless he gets hurt. It’s a lot to ask of anyone, let alone a forward who is 37 years old this year.
