MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Messi only appeared in 19 league matches for Inter Miami in 2024. That didn't stop him from scoring 20 goals and assisting 11. While some disagreed with the selection, Messi won the Most Valuable Player award. The injury bug is the only thing that could hold Messi back in 2025. While his work rate is next to nothing, he still makes unbelievable plays that turn back the clock when on the ball. A healthy Messi could score 30-plus goals in MLS play, but it's tough to project the Argentinian to play the full schedule.
Three goal contributions in win
Messi scored two goals and assisted once from 10 shots and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 win versus D.C. United.
ANALYSIS
Messi sprung the attack for Miami's first goal Saturday before scoring two of his own as the former Ballon d'Or winner drove his side to a 3-2 victory. The forward's 10 shots attempts (four on goal) marked his most in a single-appearance this season. Messi is in red hot form having now scored six goals and supplied four assists across his last five appearances (four starts).
