Inter Miami, the Major League Soccer (MLS) club, has officially introduced Lionel Messi as their newest player in a grand event held at DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Despite heavy rain and strong winds, thousands of cheering fans witnessed the Argentine superstar's arrival.

Speaking in Spanish, Messi expressed his gratitude to the crowd for their warm reception and stated his anticipation for the exciting experiences that lie ahead.

Washington Post reports that Messi expressed his excitement about this new chapter in his career and his eagerness to contribute to the club's objectives.

A former soccer star and co-owner of Inter Miami, David Beckham, expressed his pride in having a player of Messi's caliber join the club.

Also, the co-owner of Inter Miami, Jorge Mas, who referred to the event as a gift and celebration for the city that embraced him and others seeking freedom,  introduced Messi as the "best number 10 in the world," although many soccer fans argue that he deserves recognition as the greatest player of all time.

Messi's numerous achievements include a record seven world player of the year awards, being named the best player at a World Cup twice, and scoring 806 goals across all competitions, making him the second-highest scorer in soccer history.
