Inter Miami tickets selling for £600 despite no Lionel Messi guarantees – with Hong Kong friendly organisers sending warning to excited fans

Major League Soccer

New York Red Bulls

It has been announced that the MLS outfit will be <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/lionel-messi-historic-hong-kong-tour-inter-miami-mls-pre-season-plans-luis-suarez/blt5559ead35e2c99b4" target="_blank">taking in a historic first international tour in 2024</a> – as they ready themselves for the start of another domestic campaign. Part of their pre-season programme will be spent in the Far East.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Inter Miami are due to face a team made up of Hong Kong-based stars on February 4 – with “marquee players” being promised for that fixture.

That is doing little to curb excitement ahead of the game, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/lionel-messi-shifts-tickets-inter-miami-friendly-hong-kong-sells-out-60-minutes-cheapest-seats-113/blt5ff2782d12677eb8" target="_blank">the match having sold out in under an hour</a>. Entrance passes are now being sold on the Viagogo resale site for HK$12,000 (£1,200/$1,500) a pair. For as long as there is a chance of Messi taking to the field, fans will continue to snap up tickets.
