Reuniting with Messi and Busquets was a draw, but the “exciting project” pitched by co-owners Beckham and Mas was also attractive

Lionel Messi's manager at Inter Miami, Javier Mascherano, has shared his concern over the harsh tackling the Argentine legend can be subject to.

Inter Miami will head to Honduras as their preseason begins to come to a close facing Olimpia. While the Herons have played in five different countries so far, they've had a more condensed preseason than last season which saw them travelling around Asia before kicking off MLS play.

Javier Mascherano wants to team up Lionel Messi with Boca Juniors midfielder Milton Delgado at Inter Miami, according to El Crack Deportivo.

Messi gave the crowd a lasting memory, scoring a goal and delivering two assists to lead Miami to a 5-0 victory. The Argentine captain played 63 minutes and was replaced by 17-year-old Santi Morales. The other Inter Miami goals were scored by Fede Redondo, Noah Allen, Luis Suarez, and Ryan Sailor, who came off the bench in the 71 st minute.

Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano has weighed in on Cristiano Ronaldo’s bold claims about being the greatest soccer player of all time, offering a subtle but pointed response in defense of Lionel Messi.
