Inter Miami: "Tu ne joueras jamais pour l'équipe nationale", l'improbable menace de Messi à un adversaire
The recent tense encounter between Inter Miami and the Seattle Sounders reportedly resulted in a heated verbal exchange between Lionel Messi and Pedro de la Vega. The world champion made a surprising threat.
Lionel Messi in turmoil? As reported by some media outlets, including Goal, the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner had a verbal spat with his fellow Argentinian Pedro de la Vega on Sunday night during Inter Miami's 3-0 defeat to the Seattle Sounders in the Leagues Cup final. According to Alan Gordon, a former MLS player turned consultant, Messi even threatened de la Vega.
"You will never play for the national team"
"Messi said something to him. Remember when they argued during the match? Messi said to his face, 'You'll never play for the national team as long as I'm here.' That's what happened. I find that disgusting," the former US international told the "Major League Journeymen" podcast, adding that he got this information from "a reliable source."

When asked about the matter, De la Vega, who at 24 years old has no caps for the Albiceleste, refused to fuel any controversy: "Messi is the best. He's a world champion, he's my idol. What happened was part of the game. I tried to stay focused and not take it personally." Beyond this episode, this match between Inter Miami and Seattle was marked by the (new) outburst of Luis Suarez, who saw fit to... spit on a member of the opposing team's staff.
