Lionel Messi's new boots as Adidas launch range ahead of Inter Miami vs New York Red Bulls in MLS

Despite the football world's attention being on the Saudi Pro League right now, Lionel Messi was one superstar who went against the grain and opted to join Inter Miami in the ML. And it's safe to say his time in America so far has been a roaring success.

The Argentinian has yet to experience defeat with the club going from strength to strength since his arrival. In fact, Miami have won seven out of seven on their way to a Leagues Cup trophy success, which is quite an incredible turn around for a club floundering with the worst record in the division and with one managerial casualty under their belts already this season after Beckam relieved Phil Neville of coaching duties.

The 36 year-old led Miami to their first piece of silverware at the weekend, scoring in the Leagues Cup final against Nashville as Miami won 10-9 on penalties following a 1-1 draw.
