Major League Soccer announced the fixtures for the upcoming 2024 season. Messi and his Inter Miami side will be in action for the first time on February 21 when they take on Real Salt Lake at DRV PNK Stadium. Their final game of the regular season will be played on October 19 against the New England Revolution.

Messi's side will play 34 games during the regular season which include 17 home and as many away games. They will face the 14 teams in the Easter Conference twice in the season and will play once each against six teams from the other conference. Inter Miami are scheduled to play 24 out of their 34 games on Saturdays, eight during the midweek and two on Sundays.

The David Beckham-owned club are set to lock horns against three clubs from the Western Conference whom they have never faced before. The three clubs are Real Salt Lake, Colorado Rapids and Vancouver Whitecaps.

Ahead of the new season, the 36-year-old former Barcelona star is working hard to stay in shape. He recently hit the gym with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo at the 'Glute Lab' and trained under her personal trainer Bret Contreras.
