Lionel Messi and Novak Djokovic made the “night” for Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas, who was overjoyed to be among the two legends
WHAT OCCURED?The two athletic giants met up with Mas to give it a memorable evening for the American billionaire.
Djokovic just won the Cincinnati Open, an ATP Masters 1000 title in which he defeated Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz in a classic. He took time out to visit Messi, who has been in amazing form for Inter Miami and led his team to a League Cup victory, his 44th in his career.
The two legends were accompanied by Mas who shared a picture of the trio and wrote: “What a night” along with two goat emojis.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Djokovic has a great relationship with Messi and was present when Paris Saint-Germain won the Ligue 1 title in June, while also competing in the French Open. On that occasion, he took advantage of the opportunity to meet with seven-time Ballon d’Or winner and Brazil international Neymar.
WHAT COMES NEXT? Messi is poised to make his debut MLS appearance against the New York Red Bulls on Saturday evening.
