Lionel Messi BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Lionel Messi has spent the past few days doing what only Lionel Messi seems able to do at 38 years old: turning an already gilded career into something even more historic while quietly scripting new chapters in Miami pink. Fox Sports reports that he has just been named the first back to back MLS Most Valuable Player in league history, after a 2025 season in which he delivered a league best 29 goals and 19 assists in the regular season, then carried Inter Miami to the MLS Cup title. The same report notes he also pulled off the rare domestic treble of MVP, MLS Cup and Golden Boot in the same year, a combination previously achieved only once in the league, underscoring a run that will loom large in any future biography of his late career in North America.
According to Major League Soccer broadcast coverage and highlight packages, Messi’s most visible public appearances in recent days have been around Inter Miami’s 3–1 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS Cup final, where cameras caught him lifting the Audi MLS Cup trophy, embracing teammates and sharing long, emotional moments with retiring friends Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets on the pitch. Telecom Asia reports that shortly after the final he published a widely shared, sentimental post on his social media accounts, thanking his family and fans, calling the title a dream he had since arriving in Miami, and publicly saluting Alba and Busquets as they bowed out after the match; that message, amplified across Instagram and X, has dominated his social feed and global football discourse for days.
On the business side, Fox Sports also reports that Inter Miami have locked in Messi’s future with a new three year extension that will keep him in MLS through the opening of the club’s new stadium near Miami International Airport, a decision that cements Miami not as a retirement stop but as the definitive final act of his club career, barring any surprise late move. Commentators on MLS studio programming have framed this extension, and Messi’s back to back MVP status, as a turning point for the league’s global relevance and for Inter Miami’s valuation and brand power. There are the usual unconfirmed social media whispers about possible limited minutes or load management next season, but for now the verified story is simple: Lionel Messi is staying in Miami, still winning everything, and still rewriting what the twilight of a superstar’s career can look like.
