Will Leo Messi be sent out on loan by FC Barcelona or to somewhere in Saudi Arabia?

This scenario is unlikely, as Inter Miami wouldn't want to take any risks ahead of the fresh MLS season.

The schedule for the 2024 MLS season has not yet been released, but it will likely start in either late February or early March.

The Herons failed to make it to the playoffs this year, and Tata Martino aims to start the new season with a bang.

Having inherited Phil Neville's side in June, he'll look to sign new faces (Suarez could be one of them) who'll play with the style he aims to bring. "I like that he wants to take risks. He wants to go forward," said Yedlin while talking about the coach's style of play.

Martino is known for finding young talents, and his latest discoveries are 21-year-old Argentine midfielder Facundo Farias, 19-year-old Argentine center back Tomas Aviles, and 20-year-old Paraguayan midfielder Diego Gomez.

He'd want to have the right mix of experience and young talent at his disposal, creating a team that finds balance right from day 1 around Lionel Messi.

Also, Leo Messi isn't here to chill whenever he wants. He knows there's a responsibility, and as the captain of the side, he'd like to be a part of the group the day they return to training for the new session. Building deep bonds and understanding with other players will be crucial, and he knows this better than anyone.

While his team prepares for the new season, will he be keen on spending time bidding farewell elsewhere?

Plus, there has been a lot of news about Inter Miami wanting to have pre-season matches with big teams around the world. Will anyone be interested in hosting or attending if Messi isn't a part of the squad?

Messi is Inter Miami's trump card, and the MLS stakeholders know he's their most important asset. They wouldn't want someone else to profit from him and hurt their chances.
