Messi adds another title with Inter Miami

Ciro Messi, the youngest son of Lionel Messi, continues to shine by helping the Inter Miami youth team win the 2026 Adidas Champions Cup.

Ciro Messi, the youngest son of Lionel Messi, left a strong mark on the Inter Miami youth team's journey to winning the 2026 Adidas Champions Cup. Playing for the U8 and U9 teams within the Inter Miami Academy, Ciro displayed a competitive spirit and composure that seem to be trademarks of the Messi family.

The Adidas Champions Cup is a tournament that gathers many of the region's top young talents. At this event, Ciro stood out as one of the most impressive players. He played with confidence, handled the ball cleanly, and moved intelligently, showing a commendable understanding of the game for his age.

Not only did he shine in a few matches, but Ciro maintained consistent form throughout the entire tournament, making a major contribution to Inter Miami's championship victory. He finished the tournament as the top scorer, consistently finding the net with his skillful left foot, which reminded many of his famous father. According to some reports, Ciro was also voted the tournament's Most Valuable Player due to his significant impact in both the group stage and the final.

After the final concluded, images of Ciro lifting the trophy with his teammates quickly spread across social media. Many fans noted that the moment was reminiscent of Lionel Messi's triumphs with his club and the Argentine national team.

Notably, this is not Ciro's only recent achievement. In February 2025, the star born in 2018 also helped his team win the Weston Cup and even wore the captain's armband.

Meanwhile, his older brothers Thiago and Mateo are also training at the Inter Miami Academy, indicating that the Messi family's new chapter in South Florida is just beginning.

With the first team, Lionel Messi also continues to shine, inspiring Inter Miami to a dramatic comeback victory over Orlando City in MLS, scoring two goals, including a world-class free kick.
