‘My mentality and my head are not going to change and I am going to try, wherever I have to be, give my best for myself and my new club, continue to perform at the highest level,’ Messi told television in his native Argentina, via ESPN.

Speaking of his family moving to the United States, he added: ‘We are happy with the decision we made. Prepared and eager to face the new challenge, the new change.’

Messi’s move to MLS is expected to take the sport to new heights in the United States. Former Barcelona team-mate Sergio Busquets has already joined him in Miami.

Messi arrives in the United States as a World Cup winner after leading Argentina to glory in Qatar last year. It was the first time Argentina had won soccer’s biggest prize since 1986 and proved the crowning moment of Messi’s international career.

The Miami team is in urgent need of an injection of star quality. The team is last in the MLS Eastern Conference, hasn’t won in 10 games and is eight points away from the playoffs.

Miaмi are also in talks to sign free agent Sergio Raмos – who, like Messi, left French teaм PSG this suммer when his contract expired.

Raмos and Messi were once sworn eneмies as figureheads at Real Madrid and Barcelona Ƅut Ƅecaмe unlikely teaммates in France.
