Lionel Messi Contract Details: Soccer Star Reportedly Nearing Multi-Year MLS Extension with Inter Miami

Messi's extension will keep him in Major League Soccer through 2027, where he has led Inter Miami to first trophies and set league records, sources said.

  • As of September 2025, Lionel Messi is nearing the completion of negotiations to extend his contract with Inter Miami for several more years.
  • This negotiation follows Messi's initial two-and-a-half-year deal signed in July 2023 that runs through the end of the 2025 MLS season.
  • During the 2025 season, Messi has appeared in 36 matches for Inter Miami across various competitions—including MLS, the Concacaf Champions Cup, the Leagues Cup, and the Club World Cup—accumulating 28 goals and 14 assists.
  • Messi is currently Inter Miami's all-time leading scorer with 62 goals and said he goes 'day by day, match by match' while staying honest about his condition.
  • The extension would keep Messi in South Florida for years, with a clause for him to join the club's ownership after retirement and support Miami’s upcoming stadium debut in 2026.
