New York Times  

The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida looks like it was designed by an eight-year-old on the back of a napkin. “Even as time has passed, my desire to remains intact,” Messi told Argentina’s Sportia shortly before the 2018 World Cup in Russia. It’s something that I still have left to do.” During a recent interview with Brazilian outlet UOL, Messi’s former international teammate and close friend Sergio “Kun” Aguero swung the pendulum in Newell’s favor. This will be the quantum leap in all shapes and forms for anybody that’s followed the game.” This does not mean Hudson shares Inter Miami’s confidence that they’ll land Messi’s signature. For Diego, a move to Inter Miami would jeopardize Messi’s preparation for the 2024 Copa América, because “he won’t take seriously.” Argentina will defend its title when the tournament comes to the U.S. next summer.
