Find out how many goals Lionel Messi has scored for Inter Miami, and how many goals he needs to become the historic top scorer for the American club.
Astonishingly quickly, as usual, Argentine Lionel Messi established himself as a legend of the American club Inter Miami, who signed him in the summer of 2023 in a free transfer deal, after the expiration of his contract with French club Paris Saint-Germain.
Messi played only four matches with Inter Miami, but managed to score seven goals, quickly breaking into the list of all-time top scorers for the team partially owned by English legend David Beckham.
Inter Miami was founded in 2018, so it makes a lot of sense for him to breakthrough the list in such rapid fashion, and it would be safe to assume that Messi can continue his impressive goalscoring rate, to move further up the list.
What is the current ranking of Lionel Messi in the historical scorers for Inter Miami?
With his total of seven goals with the American team, Messi is fourth in the list of all-time scorers for Inter Miami, and he has a huge opportunity to advance further on the list.
