  • Officials spoke on background and a White House official said on condition of anonymity about plans, while an unnamed Inter Miami source said `everyone` will attend; full details are expected next week.
  • Trump’s public soccer involvement includes hosting Cristiano Ronaldo and meeting FIFA president Gianni Infantino, signaling growing engagement with the sport.
  • Messi's presence is notable because he is likely to attend the White House visit on March 5, two days before the March 7 game, despite missing the January 2025 Medal of Freedom ceremony. a White House official said on condition of anonymity.
