Can Inter Miami Win the Premier League? Sergio Aguero Thinks So

Sergio Aguero, the former Manchester City striker, has made a bold claim that Inter Miami, the Major League Soccer club, can win the English Premier League with Lionel Messi on their side. Aguero, a former national teammate of Messi, believes that the team has what it takes to win the league.

Inter Miami’s impressive start to the season

Recall that Messi, who attained legendary status during his time at FC Barcelona, left Paris Saint-Germain for Inter Miami in 2023. In his first season at the club, he helped the American side win the League Cup but failed to push them to finish in the top four of the Eastern Conference.

Under Messi’s watch, Inter Miami recorded 9 wins, 7 draws, and 18 defeats in 34 league games, finishing 14th in the conference at the end of the 2023 season. However, the 2024 season has been a different story so far, with Inter Miami recording 11 wins, 5 draws, and three defeats in 19 league games, topping the Eastern Conference with 38 points, two points above second-placed Cincinnati who still have two games in hand.

“I think they would win the league,” Aguero told Stake.com. “They have Messi who is the GOAT, and with him, even winning the Premier is possible.”

Lionel Messi, the key to Inter Miami’s success

Aguero also believes that Brazilian and Real Madrid winger, Vinicius Junior, will win the 2024 Ballon d’Or.

“I think the award should be Vinicius. He had a great season, winning the La Liga title and the Champions League, too, to go with it.”

Aguero’s comments have sparked debate among football fans, with some agreeing that Inter Miami has the potential to win the Premier League, while others believe it’s a far-fetched idea.
