FC Midtjylland Descripción general

Inter Miami star Lionel Messi has reached an agreement in principle to purchase Spanish second-tier outfit CD Eldense in a landmark takeover bid. The Argentine icon is set to acquire 100 per cent of the club's shares, cementing his growing business footprint across Spanish football ahead of his anticipated eventual return to live in Catalonia.

Amid the speculation suggesting that Neymar could reform Barcelona’s fabled ‘MSN’ strike partnership with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, Gus Poyet has told GOAL “there is a rule for MLS and one for Inter Miami”. The former Uruguay international is among those keen to see if a legendary fellow countryman will be joined in the United States next season by a Brazilian icon.

The 16-year-old broke Freddy Adu's record and strengthened his USMNT case, while Antoine Griezmann, Josh Sargent and Breel Embolo delivered across MLS.

Lionel Messi has retired from international football with Argentina, but will he head in a similar direction at club level? The South American GOAT is tied to a contract at Inter Miami through 2028 and former MLS star Shaka Hislop has told GOAL why the evergreen 39-year-old is likely to honour that agreement before taking on a future ambassadorial role.
