Lionel Messi Named Major League Soccer's Most Valuable Player After Record-Setting Season
Lionel Messi was named Major League Soccer's Most Valuable Player on Friday after leading Inter Miami to a record-breaking regular season campaign. The Argentine superstar was handed the accolade after his performances helped Miami to a record regular season points tally, earning the club its first ever Supporters Shield. The 37-year-old maestro finished the regular season with a league-leading 36 goal contributions after netting 20 goals and 16 assists. Messi's MVP award comes despite an injury-hit campaign that saw him make only 19 appearances this year.
