You won’t find it easy at Inter Miami – Wayne Rooney warns Messi
The manager of DC United, Wayne Rooney, has told Lionel Messi, who recently joined Inter Miami, that life in the US will not be simple.
Messi left Paris Saint-Germain and joined Major League Soccer (MLS) after turning down offers from Barcelona and Saudi Arabia.
Rooney has now clarified why the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner would have trouble adjusting to life in the United States.
The Times quoted him as saying: “It’s huge for the MLS to attract Messi, especially with what’s going on in Saudi.
He won’t have an easy time here. It may sound absurd, but new players will find that the competition is competitive. There is a lot of energy and intensity on the field in addition to the traveling and various weather conditions in several places.
Americans adore winners, continued Rooney. Specifically, they they want to see skill and to be entertained, and Messi brings all that.”
