35-year-old Argentine footballer Lionel Messi will play in the USA, not in Saudi Arabia.

On June 7, the famous forward Lionel Messi announced his move to the American club “Inter Miami.” The details of the transfer deal for the star athlete are not yet known.

It was previously reported that Messi would accept an offer from a club in Saudi Arabia. It is reported that the Argentine rejected offers from the Saudi football club “Al-Hilal,” which promised him 1.5 billion euros. According to the footballer, it was not about the money.
