As his music was played at the soccer sensation’s Inter Miami presentation, Lil Baby has assisted in luring Lionel Messi to the MLS.
On a soggy Florida night on Sunday (July 16), Messi made his debut in front of the Miami supporters in front of a packed DRV PNK Stadium as Baby’s “The World Is Yours to Take” blared from the speakers.
The music, which was created by OG Parker and samples the Tears For Fears song “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” was originally included on the official soundtrack for the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The 4PF leader shared the scene again on his Instagram Stories, tagging Messi and adding a number of fire emojis.
Messi addressed the crowd in Spanish, saying, “Before anything, I want to give thanks to Miami for this reception and the compassion since I got to the city. “To be quite honest, I’m ecstatic to be with you and here in Miami.
“I’m delighted to have selected this project and to have chosen to bring my family to this city. Without a doubt, we’ll enjoy it, have a nice time, and wonderful things will occur.
The 36-year-old will make his Inter Miami debut at DRV PNK Stadium on Friday, July 21, when the team faces Cruz Azul of Mexico as part of the Leagues Cup 2023. He will wear his characteristic No. 10.
When the MLS season resumes, Messi—who is regarded as probably the greatest soccer player of all time—will have a lot of work ahead of him because Inter Miami is now last in the Eastern Conference.
The Argentinean played with Barcelona for 17 seasons, scoring a lot of goals, before making the move to the United States. He then spent the final two seasons with Paris Saint-Germain.
