'At PSG, Lionel Messi didn't have a good time...': Jordi Alba opens up on FIFA World Cup winner's Inter Miami transfer

Hindustan Times  

Lionel Messi's footballing career in Europe came to an inconspicuous end, as he had a falling out with the higher-ups at Paris Saint-Germain and had no recourse except to leave the French club. Aug 2, 2023; Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA; Inter Miami CF forward Lionel Messi and defender Jordi Alba look on after the match against Orlando City SC at DRV PNK Stadium. While it certainly isn't a league that matches up to the quality Europe possesses, Messi's change in demeanor and refound quality indicates a positive mental shift, according to Alba. The left-back and Messi had an excellent connection throughout their shared time in Barcelona, and Alba came off the bench to make his Miami debut in their 3-1 win over Orlando City in Wednesday's Leagues Cup knockout match. Alba also said that while some may view Messi's move to North America as the final chapter of his career, in a less taxing and competitive environment than Europe, it didn't mean he was going to take it easy.
