Canadian defender of the Chelyabinsk “tractor” Robert Hamilton believes that the Argentine striker “Inter Miami” Lionel Messi already plays a big role in the development of football in North America.
This summer, Messi left PSG, for whom he had played since 2021, and joined MLS club Inter Miami.
– The team says you play good football, you played it in your childhood.
“I certainly don’t play football very well. We recently played Traktor for two or three hours, my legs hurt and I didn’t feel the best. I did it as a child, but in Europe and Russia football is on a much more serious level than at home. North American national teams play well, but kids’ soccer is not as developed.
“But football is becoming more and more popular in North America?”
– Yes. Messi’s move to Miami is a big story for North American football. He’s incredibly popular and does fantastic things. People are now paying big bucks to see him on the pitch. Indeed, football is becoming more and more popular in North America, — quotes the words of Hamilton “RB Sport”.
The new KHL season begins on September 1.
