The docuseries will include sit-down interviews with Messi and Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham. The latter claims in the trailer that the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner is:
"One of the best players in the world."

Lionel Messi is pushing for Luka Modric to join him at Inter Miami
Former Real Madrid forward Pedja Mijatovic claims Lionel Messi is interested in being joined at Inter Miami by Luka Modric. The Croatian signed a new one-year contract with Madrid in the summer.
However, Modric has dropped out of Carlo Ancelotti's starting XI following the arrival of Jude Bellingham. He's made just three starts in seven games and could be heading towards the Santiago Bernabeu exit door.
Mijatovic says that the 38-year-old has been in contact with Inter Miami co-owner Beckham. He also claims Lionel Messi has a personal interest in Modric's potential acquisition, telling Cadena SER:
"He has received offers from the United States, from many teams and from this one in particular. He already had the one in Saudi Arabia but he wanted to stay in Madrid. Messi himself has personally been interested in the possibility. In Croatia, a few days ago, Modric met Beckham, where they were eating."
Modric has long been regarded as one of Europe's best midfielders. He has bagged 37 goals and 77 assists in 495 games across competitions for Madrid. The Croatian hero also won the Ballon d'Or in 2018.
