Inter Miami have honored Lionel Messi by naming a stadium stand after him, continuing their celebration of the Argentine star and his impact on the club, Softfootball reports.

This recognition is historic, as it is uncommon for an active player to receive such an honor. Typically, stadium stands are named after players only after they have retired, but Messi has broken that tradition. His legacy at the club is now permanently secured, ensuring he will always be remembered and celebrated by Inter Miami.
