Pase lo que pase, Leo Messi ya es historia viva del Inter Miami y de la MLS. El astro argentino llegó para cambiar un deporte en Estados Unidos, y vaya si lo ha hecho. En esta temporada, la ‘Pulga’ ya registra más goles y asistencias que partidos jugados (10+9 en 8 partidos) en la MLS para pelear ya no solo por el MVP, también por dos marcas históricas, tanto en la competición nacional como en el Inter Miami.

Dede su arribo a Florida, Messi no ha hecho más que marcar (cuando las lesiones se lo han permitido). En una temporada y media, el delantero ya suma 23 tantos en su mochila en 25 partidos oficiales con el Inter Miami, casi un tanto por partido. El rosarino se encuentra a apenas seis tantos de la marca de otro histórico de las ‘Garzas’, el ‘Pipita’ Higuaín. El ex del Madrid logró dejar su huella con 29 goles en los 70 partidos que disputó con el cuadro de Florida. El diez no solo está a un paso de igualarle, también de bajar la marca a la mitad de partidos.

Messi no solo podría superar en poco más de seis partidos (según las estadísticas) la marca de su excompañero en la Selección Argentina, sino que al finalizar la temporada podría dejar una nueva marca. De momento, el argentino ya lleva una racha de 11 partido marcando, asistiendo o las dos en un mismo partido. La ‘Messidependencia’ se ha acentuado más que nunca, sin el argentino el Inter Miami hace aguas, pero con él en el once son imparables.

Tras más de una década en el fútbol europeo, logrando además títulos y reconocimientos individuales, Higuaín aterrizó en Fort Lauderdale en 2020 tras acabar contrato con la Juventus. El delantero, al igual que Messi ahora, no tardó en llevarse al bolsillo el amor de la gente de Miami. Fichado como uno de los primeros ‘galácticos’ de David Beckham, el ‘Pipita’ logró cumplir con creces las expectativas puestas en él, a pesar de no haber ganado ningún título oficial con las ‘Herons’.

Jugador Goles Partidos
Gonzalo Higuaín 29 70
Leo Messi 23 25
Robert Taylor 14 88
Josef Martínez 12 40
Luis Suárez 12 15
