Exiled to Inter Miami since his departure from PSG, Lionel Messi continues to generate phenomenal media and popular enthusiasm in Argentina, where his admirers are ready for all the madness to take advantage of his latest prowess.
The World Cup was fast approaching, so Harold Fores Vandecaveye didn’t
