To see a player and their family actually happy is what it’s all about.” Inter Miami managing owner Jorge Mas was asked this week how he feels about the club’s unprecedented investment — Messi’s contract with the team is worth at least $150 million in total value, and his annual MLS salary is more than some entire MLS team payrolls combined — has worked out so far.
