The current contract between Messi and Inter Miami will end at the end of 2025. Therefore, the future of the 8-time Ballon d'Or superstar has become a topic of special public interest, especially in the context of Argentina preparing to defend the World Cup championship in the US next summer.
Information in the Tot Costa program of Catalan Radio said that Messi has made an choice for the next journey. Accordingly, this striker is expected to complete the contract extension with Inter Miami until 2028.
At that time, Messi will celebrate his 41st birthday (June 24, 2028) and continue to be associated with the American team in the final stages of his career.
The new contract also has special terms. Messi has the right to terminate his contract at the end of each season, for example if he wants to retire right after the 2026 World Cup.
On the other hand, Inter Miami also have the right to unilaterally terminate the contract after 2 years. If neither side activates this clause, Messi will be with the team until mid-2028.
In addition, journalist Xavi Campos also revealed more about the new contract: "The decisive factor in Messi's contract extension is that he will become an important shareholder of Inter Miami, co-own the club with David Beckham and the billionaire brothers Jorge - Jose Mas".
Information about Lionel Messi's contract extension until 2028 and possibly becoming a shareholder of the club has been announced by many prestigious news agencies.
Despite receiving attractive offers from Saudi Pro League clubs, Messi is said to want to end his career in the US, feeling "at home" at Inter Miami.
