Lionel Messi’s 2023 arrival at Inter Miami has, by almost every measure, been a resounding success.
Since the Argentine’s debut, the club has lifted the Leagues Cup and the Supporters’ Shield, with Messi’s goals, assists, and flashes of brilliance playing a central role in their rise. The only major piece of domestic silverware still missing is the MLS Cup—but judging by Messi’s form and the team’s performances throughout much of the 2025 season, that dream feels well within reach.
That being said, Messi's Miami haven’t been flawless. There have been the occasional cold spells where, for one reason or another (and usually not because of Messi), things just don’t quite click on the pitch for the Herons.
Here, we take a closer look at Inter Miami’s overall record since Messi joined—and compare it to how the team was performing before his arrival.
