Expectations are sky-high for Inter Miami in 2024 – their first full season with Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, who this year welcome fellow FC Barcelona legend Luis Suárez into the fold. But first, the Herons embark on an ambitious preseason tour spanning six cities and two continents.

Messi transformed North American soccer last summer when announcing his next destination would be Inter Miami. That memorable half-season produced a Leagues Cup title, a Concacaf Champions Cup berth and a world-record eighth Ballon d'Or award.

Now, what will 2024 bring about?

Preseason awaits head coach Tata Martino's squad, which starts the 2024 campaign on Feb. 21 by hosting Real Salt Lake (8 pm ET | MLS Season Pass). You can follow the action all year long via MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.

La Selecta are usually captained by Seattle Sounders FC fullback Alex Roldan and have regularly featured LA Galaxy defender Eric Zavaleta. However, neither player was called up by head coach David Dóniga for a recent training camp as their own MLS seasons near.
