Josef Martínez, the Venezuelan striker who played for Inter Miami in 2023, opened up about the transformative effect of Lionel Messi’s arrival at the club. In mid-2023, Lionel Messi shook up Major League Soccer (MLS) by announcing his move to Inter Miami after departing PSG as a free agent.

Lionel Messi scored his first goal in five matches, and Inter Miami returned to its winning ways with a 4-1 win against the New York Red Bulls.

After crashing out of the Concacaf Champions Cup midweek, Inter Miami were able to break out of their mini funk while dispatching the New York Red Bulls 4-1. The Herons would get to a 3-1 lead by halftime thanks to Fafa Picault and Luis Suarez finding the back of the net.
