Lionel Messi scored the equaliser in the match between Inter Miami and Charlotte FC (1-1). A special goal for the Argentine, as it was his 28th with the pink jersey (he already has 16 this season) and the one that made him the franchise's third all-time top scorer. The '10' is just one goal away from equalling Gonzalo Higuaín (29) and three away from tying the leader of the standings, Leonardo Campana (31).

The project of the club led by David Beckham began in 2020, which is why it still does not have historic scorers with overwhelming numbers, as is the case with Landon Donovan in Los Angeles Galaxy (140 goals) or Jaime Moreno in DC United (131 goals). However, several important names have made it onto the list of top scorers in the short 'life' of the entity.

Inter Miami's three top scorers

The first of them, Higuaín, who after passing through teams such as Real Madrid, Juventus, Milan and Chelsea, landed in Fort Lauderdale as the institution's first star signing. El Pipita, who ended his career in Florida, reached the figure of 29 goals (all in the MLS) and 11 assists during his two seasons with the Garzas.

However, Leonardo Campana, an Ecuadorian forward, managed to surpass Higuaín on September 18 by scoring the second goal in the 2-2 draw against Atlanta United Football Club. The South American already has 31 goals in 94 games, leading the club's historical classification.

Despite this, Messi promises to far exceed these numbers, since in 33 games played between the MLS, the Leagues Cup, the US Open Cup and the Concachampions he has accumulated 28 goals. Another former FC Barcelona player like Luis Suárez could also sneak into the top three, as he has 21 goals in 31 games played.

These are the 10 top scorers in the history of Inter Miami:
