Lionel Messi arrived with several cakes under his arm at Inter Miami this summer. Not only did he exponentially increase the income of the Florida team, but he also gave greater visibility to the MLS, won the first title they put in dispute, and scored 10 goals in seven games. In addition, the eldest son of the Argentine star will also be part of David Beckham's team.
In the last few hours, various reports claim that Thiago Messi, the firstborn of La Pulga and Antonela Roccuzzo, has been registered in the Academy of the Fort Lauderdale Institution, in the U-12 category.
"The updates to the roster and coaching staff of the 2023-24 season of Inter Miami's Academy are now available and are undoubtedly led by the addition to the U-12 Academy team: Thiago Messi," IMCF Traveller, one of the closest Twitter accounts to the MLS club, reported.

Who is Thiago, Lionel Messi's oldest son?
Thiago Messi is Lionel's oldest son that he fathered with Antonela. He is 10 years old and his father described him as "a phenomenon".
Following in his father's footsteps at Barcelona, Thiago is a fervent admirer of FC Barcelona, something his more extroverted brothers, Mateo and Ciro, take advantage of to tease him. According to Leo himself, they enjoy celebrating Real Madrid's goals just to annoy him.
