Lionel Messi, Argentina’s FIFA World Cup-winning star and Inter Miami forward, has been confirmed as one of the Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients, the highest civilian honour in the United States, for his significant contributions to sports and humanitarian efforts.

As a celebrated figure in global sports, Messi has excelled on the pitch and dedicated significant efforts toward humanitarian causes. Through his Leo Messi Foundation, he supports healthcare and education programs for children worldwide and serves as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. These efforts underscore the attributes that led to his selection for this prestigious award.

Since moving to the United States in the summer of 2023 to join Inter Miami, Messi has continued to showcase his exceptional skills. In his debut season, he helped his team clinch the League Cup title. Despite a challenging second season, during which Inter Miami won the MLS Supporters Shield but lost in the MLS Cup 2024 playoffs, Messi’s influence was unmistakable, earning him the Most Valuable Player award.

In recognizing Messi and other distinguished Americans, President Joe Biden noted that these individuals exemplify great leadership through their decency and impactful contributions to the country and the world.
