ESPN: PSG's Lionel Messi Has Not Agreed to Rumored Historic Contract with Inter Miami

Despite reports of a deal with Inter Miami, Lionel Messi has not yet finalized an agreement with the Major League Soccer squad, according to Julien Laurens of ESPN.

Matt Lawton of The Times reported Sunday the two sides were "close to agreeing a deal" that would make him the highest-paid player in MLS history.

Messi has denied there is a deal in place, however, according to Laurens. The 35-year-old will instead wait to consider his future until the new year.

The Paris Saint-Germain star is under contract through the end of the 2022-23 season.
