Lionel Messi
38-Year-Old
Inter Miami CF
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.

Nets brace to sink New England
Messi scored two goals while taking six shots (two on goal), crossing once accurately and creating a chance during Wednesday's 2-1 win over New England.
ANALYSIS
Messi found the back of the net in the 27th and 38th minutes while leading Miami with six shots in the win. The attacker has scored two goals in each of his last four appearances to go along with 22 shots, 13 chances created and three crosses over that stretch.
