Sergio Busquets, in his first press conference with Inter Miami, said he was delighted to share a dressing room with Leo Messi and hoped to repeat in Florida the success they achieved together at Barcelona.
"I'm very happy to be able to enjoy Leo as a team-mate again. It was a long time at Barcelona," said the Spanish midfielder.
"We separated and now time has given us the opportunity to be together again, to enjoy ourselves again, and I am very much looking forward to playing alongside the best player in the history of football, a great friend and a great person. I hope we can bring to Inter Miami what we did at Barcelona," he added.
Both Messi and Busquets, who were officially unveiled on Sunday in the pink Inter Miami jersey, will be available for coach Gerardo 'Tata' Martino to make their debuts against Cruz Azul in the opening day of the Leagues Cup, a new official tournament that pits all MLS and Liga MX teams against each other.
"Now a new tournament begins and hopefully we can live up to what the club wants and I'm sure that little by little we will grow," said Busquets, who said that this adventure in the USA is a "totally different challenge" for him that he takes on "with a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of desire".
