THE BIGGER PICTURE: Messi is settling into life in the States ahead of his official unveiling as an Inter Miami player. In preparation for his MLS debut,the club are planning to revamp their 18,000-capacity DRV PNK Stadium in a bid to capitalise on the huge amount of interest in the former Barcelona star.
