    Big blow for Paris St-Germain, and exciting news for American soccer fans as it is confirmed Lionel Messi will be joining Inter Miami in MLS!

    Good for the MLS but the ticket prices already are ridiculous. Charlotte FC is my local club and I have been to a lot of their games and the one against Miami in October already has skyrocketing prices; last time I looked like 400 dollars for even the crap seats. Pathetic but people will pay it.

    Funny thing is though Miami will probably have playoffs locked up by then, and Messi has said before he does not like playing on artificial turf, so doubt he will even travel with them lol, nevermind actually play.

    This isn't even a sport. I'm pretty sure The HCP watches it.

    Hardly a big blow for psg, Messi was meh all season and never fit in in Paris

    Funny thing, or not, Miami played in an 18,000 seat temporary tin shed they through up until they build their new big fancy stadium. Aluminum stands and a fence, worked there a few times. What sucks is, they haven't even STARTED building the new one. Most likely Messi won't even play in it. Still a huge boost to the league.
