The Argentine’s presence also earned them the League Cup title, where his influence was fundamental. Lionel Messi’s arrival at Inter Miami generated a lot of excitement and expectation, but the Argentine’s arrival also secured the title. After the club achieved this milestone, which was the first in its history, the players and club directors gathered to celebrate.

The Cote restaurant was chosen because it is considered one of the most exclusive venues in the city. Not only does it have space for ten to one hundred people, but it also offers a selection of different cuts of meat and a wine cellar containing more than one thousand two hundred variations. It is no wonder that this establishment has been awarded a Michelin star in recognition of the superior quality of its cuisine.

The opulent restaurant and its owner, Simon Kim, were responsible for publishing the images. Kim did not miss the opportunity to be photographed with the Argentine captain. In addition to the members of the “10”, other prominent sportsmen attended such as Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, Jorge Mas and David Beckham.

Both Messi and Beckham were honoured with a wonderful gift. The Argentines and the English presented them with bottles of champagne personalised with their respective initials; for example, one bottle had the letters “LM” and another the message “DB”.

Messi has only been in Miami for a short time, but he has already established himself as the dominant figure in both the city and the club. On the pitch he immediately proved his usefulness to the team. Will this be the first of many titles to come in the course of this new adventure?
