Lionel Messi continued enjoying his start to life in Miami as he enjoyed dinner with Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham and his wife Victoria.
The World Cup winner has made an impressive start to his Inter Miami career, scoring a stoppage-time winner against Cruz Azul on his debut and bagging a brace in a 4-0 thrashing of Atlanta Tuesday.
But the Argentine appears to be enjoying life off the pitch as much as he is on it as Victoria Beckham shared photos of the Messis and Beckhams out for dinner together in Miami.
The former-Spice-Girl-turned-fashion-designer posted two photos to her Instagram of herself, Beckham, Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo smiling at Gekko in Miami.
The power couples were joined by Messi’s former Barcelona teammate and new Inter Miami signing Sergio Busquets and his girlfriend Elena Galera and the MLS club’s co-owner Jorge Mas and his wife Aleyda.

Victoria also shared a photo of Beckham, Busquets and Messi with the Manchester United legend beaming, following his capture of the soccer stars.
The party appeared to be enjoying drinks and dinner at Japanese-inspired steakhouse, Gekko, where a ribeye steak costs $1200.
The SoFlo hotspot is owned by Bad Bunny and restaurateur David Grutman and blends elements of a traditional steakhouse with Japanese cuisine, including sushi and sashimi.
The restaurant, located in the Brickell neighborhood of Miami, has already hosted a number of A-Listers, including the Beckham family’s friend Eva Longoria, Kaia Gerber, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner.
Bad Bunny’s girlfriend Kendall Jenner has also been spotted there, while her sister Kim Kardashian and NBA star Tristan Thompson were also seen at the restaurant together after attending Messi’s debut.
Beckham and Messi appear to have a close relationship with the former England soccer star recently claiming that bringing Messi to Inter Miami was one of the best moments of his life.
‘I never thought I would have the same feeling as an owner as I had when I was a player,’ Beckham told The Athletic.
‘When I got the phone call (to confirm Messi was joining), I had the feeling I had when I walked out at Old Trafford or Wembley. I was like, “We’ve just beaten all competition to sign the greatest player to ever play our game”.
‘This will be up there with the biggest moves in American sporting history.’
When asked if it was one of the best moments of his life, Beckham responded: ‘Without a doubt’.
