New York CNN —It’s easy to watch Lionel Messi play in the United States, but dressing like him is a bit more difficult. Fans hoping to purchase an authentic Inter Miami jersey featuring its newest star’s name will have to wait until mid-October (notably, that’s when the Major League Soccer season ends).
