Although he is over 4,000 kilometers away, the MLS will try to make Lionel Messi 'present' at the Gold Cup Final to be held at SoFi Stadium. According to The Athletic, the American league is in talks with Concacaf to broadcast 'La Pulga's' presentation at Inter Miami on the screens of the Inglewood, California venue.

The event named 'The Unveil,' where the Florida club will reveal their signings like the Argentine, Sergio Busquets, and Gerardo 'Tata' Martino, will start at 4 PM Mexico time, while the Gold Cup Final will kick off at 5:30 PM MEX.

With this, Major League Soccer will request approval from Concacaf, FOX Sports United States, and Univision for a portion of the Inter Miami event to be shown on the screens of SoFi Stadium. The intention of MLS and Concacaf executives is to maximize the exposure, audience, and impact of both major events worldwide.

Is it possible to overlap Messi's presentation with the Gold Cup Final?

"The event will feature entertainment, speeches on the field, and more." In this way, without mentioning Lionel Messi, Inter Miami has revealed their plans for Sunday, July 16. Although David Beckham's team wants to go all out and plans a grand celebration with 'The Unveil,' it would seem challenging for both events to coincide during halftime of the Gold Cup Final.

If the schedules are followed, there would have to be approximately two and a half hours between the presentation of 'La Pulga' and his teammates for them to reach the halftime of the national team match. However, it would be more feasible for them to do something before the match that will determine the champion in Concacaf since the kickoff is planned to take place an hour and a half after the Inter Miami event.

At the moment, there have been no statements from MLS and Concacaf, so discussions will continue to establish the best timing for Messi to 'attend' the Gold Cup Final.
