Lionel Messi, captain of Inter Miami, is poised to feature in a Michelob Ultra beer commercial during Super Bowl LVIII next month.

Since he arrived in Miami last summer on a free transfer, the 36-year-old has made a significant impact both on and off the field. With 11 goals and five assists in 14 games across competitions, Messi played a pivotal role in securing Inter Miami’s maiden trophy in the Leagues Cup.

Alongside former Barcelona teammates Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suarez, managed by Tata Martino, Messi has bolstered Inter Miami’s prospects as contenders in the MLS for 2024.

The Super Bowl, a pinnacle event in American sports, attracts an audience of approximately 100 million fans. Among the anticipated highlights is an advertisement featuring Messi, where he will showcase his acting prowess for Michelob Ultra. According to reports from GOAL, the advert commands a hefty $14 million for a 60-second slot.
