Messi secures yet another accolade following his attainment of the eighth Ballon d’Or.

Lionel Messi has received Inter Miami’s MVP award for the 2023 season, as confirmed by the MLS club on their official website this Sunday. Joining the team in June following the expiration of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, the 36-year-old made an immediate impact, tallying 11 goals and eight assists in his first 14 matches. Messi played a crucial role in securing the club’s first trophy, the inaugural Leagues Cup. Despite his efforts, Inter Miami did not make it to the MLS playoffs.

Messi’s recognition follows the footsteps of Gonzalo Higuain and Lewis Morgan, previous recipients of the Miami MVP award. This announcement closely follows Messi’s remarkable achievement of securing an eighth Ballon d’Or just days ago, adding another prestigious accolade to his illustrious career.
