Lionel Messi was mobbed by Inter Miami supporters as he was driven away from his unveiling at DRV PNK Stadium on Sunday night.
The 36-year-old was spotted as he left the event in one of a fleet of cars.
Fans had lined the exit of the stadium car park, hoping to catch a glimpse of Messi after he was presented to the crowd in Fort Lauderdale.
As shown in footage shot by DailyMail.Com, they went into a frenzy when they realized the Argentinian was in the back of a black car.
Messi waved at the fans, many of whom then chased his vehicle down the road away from the stadium.
The Argentinian's move to Inter Miami was made official on Sunday, when he was unveiled in front of a packed crowd.
The hope is that his move to Major League Soccer will transform soccer in the United States.
