Where is Lionel Messi? When is he coming to Inter Miami?

So, Lionel Messi is coming to Inter Miami. But when exactly is he coming?

It has been almost a month since the Argentine world champion announced that he would be joining MLS. However, he still hasn't set foot in the United States.

Where is he?

We know he is on vacation, but we're not sure of his exact location.

After finishing his business with PSG, Messi played a friendly game for Argentina against Australia and then traveled back home to Rosario. There, he celebrated his 36th birthday and participated in the farewell matches of Maxi Rodríguez and Juan Román Riquelme.

But after that, we don't know much.

His wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, who is usually very active on social media, has been rather silent. The only glimpse of their holiday has been a picture posted by Messi on a beach that we believe is in the Bahamas.

How do we know that? Thanks to a photo also posted on Instagram by Kristian, son of Andriy Shevchenko, where he is seen next to Messi on the Caribbean island.

When is Lionel Messi coming to Inter Miami?

Again, the exact day is not clear.

There are rumors about an official presentation on July 16, and people close to the player say he will be in the United States prior to that date, preparing himself for a possible debut against Cruz Azul in the Leagues Cup on July 21.

While we don't know the precise day he will land in Miami, we can definitely say that some Messis are already here. His sister Sol, who is in a relationship with a physical trainer in Inter Miami's U-19 team, moved a few weeks ago and is helping to sort out the last details before Lionel's big arrival.
