Superstar Messi makes his MLS debut when Inter Miami visit the New York Red Bulls on Sunday, August 27. Tickets for the game are being sold for 10 times their original price.
Typically, a ticket for an MLS match costs $46. But one reseller told CNN that the average ticket price is $483. Even the front row of seats is $3,600. However, fans have to buy four tickets at the same time for $15,000. Of course, many seats are cheaper, at $345.
According to statistics, this is the most expensive ticket price in history for New York Red Bulls fans. Previously, the friendly match between this team and Barcelona in 2022 set a record of 270 USD.
Ticket prices to see Messi play in the New York Red Bulls and Inter Miami match are 10 times higher than the original price.
Messi is creating a fever in the US. He just helped Inter Miami win the Leagues Cup when defeating Nashville in the final. The Argentine superstar scored 10 goals in 7 appearances and became the top scorer of the tournament.
On August 24, Messi assisted two goals in the US Open Cup semi-final against Cincinnati. Inter Miami won on penalties and advanced to the final.
This is a breakthrough success for Inter Miami. Since its founding in 2018, David Beckham's team has not won any titles and has never been considered a force in MLS.
Apple reported a surge in subscriptions to its soccer streaming service since Messi joined Inter Miami in July. Meanwhile, unprecedented demand for Messi jerseys has left Adidas with orders due in October.
