For the event, the forward wore a beige knit sweater, gray jeans, and a gold watch.
Messi returned to South Florida after visiting Paris for the Ballon d’Or celebration, which came after Inter Miami’s MLS season ended.

At the Ballon d’Or ceremony, he was accompanied by his wife, Antonella Roccuzzo, and their three boys, Mateo, Thiago, and Ciro.
He scored seven goals to help Argentina win its third World Cup last year, including two in the final.
Before joining Inter Miami, he also scored 32 goals in 55 games for PSG across all competitions.
Despite leading the club to its first League Cup victory, he only made six league games due to injuries and international service with Argentina.
