Thiago Almada is hoping to lead Atlanta to victory over Inter Miami in MLS this weekend as the Florida side prepare without Lionel Messi in attack.

Almada told ESPN just hours before the news of his compatriot’s absence that he would like to play Messi at home, both for himself and for the fans. “People paid to see him. I hope he can travel, come and play for the fans to enjoy,” the Argentine creator said.
