Three sports legends enter a football match…
On Saturday, August 24, David Beckham shared a photo on Instagram of him, Leo Messi, and Tom Brady posing together at the Inter Miami CF vs. FC Cincinnati game.
“The BIGGEST π π couldn’t be better π©·π©·,” Beckham, 49, captioned the post. “@leomessi @tombrady to watch us go to the playoffs @intermiamicf π¦π· & πΊπΈ xx.”
In the photo, Beckham is wearing a navy blue suit with a matching tie and a light blue button-down shirt. Meanwhile, Messi, 37, and Brady, 47, opted for more casual looks, with the Argentinian footballer wearing black shorts, a white T-shirt and olive green shoes and Brady wearing a green shirt and ripped jeans.
The former defender shared the photo on his Instagram Stories the following day, writing: “I’m bringing @leomessi back to Birmingham with me.”
Beckham, who co-owns Inter Miami, signed Messi to the team last July.

“Ten years ago I began my journey to build a new MLS team,” Beckham said at an event at the time, according to ESPN. “I said then, I dreamed of bringing the best players in the world to South Florida and to the great city of Miami. Players who share our ambition to grow soccer in this country… We are so happy that you are all here to celebrate this incredible moment.”

The footballer has been on the bench since July 14, when he injured his ligament during the Copa AmΓ©rica final, but ESPN recently announced that he is expected to return to the field before the start of the playoffs in October.
Inter Miami head coach Gerardo Martino recently spoke about Messi’s recovery process, saying at a recent ESPN press conference, “He’s not training with the group. But yes, he’s already out on the field working with physical trainers.”
Martino added: “He is developing well, it was predictable that he would not be with Argentina because he is not yet in a position to play, but we continue to see him develop. There is no assessment, because you are already starting to see how you feel as you add training on the field.”
