Inter Miami captain, Lionel Messi, has named three sports he loves watching apart from football.
Messi, who recently spoke at the
American Business Forum in Miami, said he loves watching basketball, tennis and padel.
“I love all sports, I love watching them. Since coming to Miami, I have learned more about American football in particular because I was already following sports like basketball, tennis, and padel,” Messi said (via TouchlineX).
“As for American football, we used to watch only the Super Bowl game, but now I have started following the regular season of the NFL.
“My kids at school play American football, and through them, I started learning more about the game, so now I follow almost everything in general.”
Messi joined Inter Miami on a free transfer in 2023 after leaving Paris Saint-Germain.
