Lionel Messi has won yet another accolade! Despite his MLS injury issues, Inter Miami has named an eight-time Ballon d’Or winner as their MVP for the 2023 season.
Lionel Messi has added another trophy to his trophy cabinet after being named Inter Miami’s MVP for the 2023 season.
Miami claimed on their website that Messi was their most valued player for the 2023 season, despite the fact that he only joined the club in June, following his departure from PSG. To be sure, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner has had a massive influence in his first 14 games for the club, with 11 goals and eight assists.
Previous recipients of the honor include Gonzalo Higuain and Lewis Morgan, although Messi is without a doubt the most well-known player to have received Inter Miami’s MVP award. The announcement comes just days after Argentina captain Lionel Messi won his sixth Ballon d’Or, with his World Cup victory in Qatar helping to secure the prize. Messi led Inter Miami to their first prize, the inaugural Leagues Cup, but he was unable to lead them to the MLS playoffs. In actuality, the 36-year-old only scored once in six MLS outings and missed the majority of their final-weekend games due to injuries.
