“We are absolutely thrilled with the response from the fans,” said Michel Lamuniere, chairman and CEO of Tatler Asia, which is helping to stage the game.

This won’t be Messi’s first appearance in Hong Kong, as he previously played in the city during a friendly game in 2014.

Joining Messi on the Inter Miami team will be other notable players like Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, as confirmed by the organizers.

The opposing team, Hong Kong XI, will consist of players from the top division of Hong Kong’s football league. David

Beckham, co-owner of Miami and a former player who also performed in Hong Kong back in 2003 shortly after joining Real Madrid, expressed the club’s excitement about playing in this “beautiful city with a great sports scene.”
