Messi and Suarez’s eldest sons, Thiago and Benjamin, are also close friends and play for the Inter Miami Academy’s U.12 team. As parents, the two players also have the honor of leading two youth teams, Inter Miami U.12 and Orlando City SC, to play.
“It’s an honor to be here with so many other parents at Chase Stadium to support their children playing football. It’s an experience like no other. I’m honored to be on the field with my son, watching every step they take, every effort they make on the ball and certainly excited about the scoring opportunities.
“I hope the parents, young players and teenagers will enjoy this special event and experience,” Messi said in front of nearly 10,000 spectators, including most of the children, parents and young players who attended the opening day of the youth tournament organized by Inter Miami Club on May 25.
“Not just me, other parents will always sacrifice every day to take care of their children, share and support their passion for football. Pick them up every day when they go to practice or compete. Parents always try to do everything to make their children happy and football is happiness along with many other things,” Messi shared.

Another image shared by a user of social network X (formerly Twitter) shows that when Messi and his wife were on their way home after a match of their son Thiago, they were met by many other parents when they happened to stop at a traffic light on a street in Miami City and talked excitedly about their sons’ performance.
