The ex-forward of the Argentina national team spoke about his communication with his countryman after the move to MLS.
Sergio Aguero has spoken about his conversation with Lionel Messi after his move to Inter Miami was announced.
The former Argentine striker, who is friends with his legendary countryman, reports on his friend’s hilarious reaction to the pinks’ position in the MLS standings.
“Everyone was surprised by the transfer to Inter Miami because there was a lot of talk about Barcelona, but in the end it was Messi’s decision and I think he was looking for happiness, not the pressure of winning.
Ultimately, he wants to win. But he will have fun, have fun. I don’t know if he can win every match. Anyway, the more relaxed you play, the better everything will go.
We talked recently, I sent him the MLS table. I told him: “Listen, your team is among the laggards, it would be better if you bring it to ninth or better eighth place so you can enter the playoffs.”
He just laughed – what else could he do? He laughed at me. “We have to get to the playoffs,” he told me.
You shouldn’t rule out his World Cup performance, because of the way he takes care of himself. Of course, he will not play at the level of the last World Cup, but this is still Messi. He couldn’t help but score from a free kick. There should always be room for hope,” Aguero told Clarin.
Remember that Inter Miami occupies the last line in the Eastern Conference and is seven points behind the playoff zone.
