Ace! Lionel Messi magic has tennis superstar Coco Gauff ‘jumping on the Miami bandwagon’ ahead of bid for US Open glory

<p>The Argentine icon has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/44-trophies-lionel-messi-all-time-record-very-good-hands-inter-miami-tata-martino-historic-leagues-cup/blt4c0a84c28d5bf241 " target="_blank">made a stunning impact since leaving European football</a> - following spells at Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain – and embracing a new challenge in the United States. Messi already has 11 goals to his name and has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/like-movie-david-beckham-responds-lionel-messi-fix-claims-inter-miami-leagues-cup-eight-victories/blt9bf516bd984298eb" target="_blank">emerged victorious in all nine of his outings for Inter Miami</a> so far.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/lionel-messi-mls-goal-inter-miami-new-york-red-bulls/blt0676c83b829d2dd0" target="_blank">on target again when making his MLS debut off the bench</a> in a meeting with the New York Red Bulls.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Gauff is now a fully-fledged member of the Messi fan club, with the 19-year-old posting on social media after seeing the South American produce more moments of match-altering brilliance during his cameo outing against the Red Bulls: “Jumping on the Miami bandwagon.”</p><center><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Jumping on the Miami bandwagon🌴🎯😏 <a href="https://t.co/rkZM2QfZ1c">https://t.co/rkZM2QfZ1c</a></p>— Coco Gauff (@CocoGauff) <a href="https://twitter.com/CocoGauff/status/1695618687250665891?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 27, 2023</a></blockquote>
