Despite still having two MLS regular season games left to play, the 2023 campaign has practically come to an end for Inter Miami due to last weekend’s loss against Cincinnati with the home defeat representing an end to any mathematical possibility of qualifying for the playoffs.

Inter Miami now face Charlotte twice (home and away) before the curtain officially comes down on a historic season for the Miami based club.

The games will still generate plenty of interest however as Charlotte are still in with an outside chance of clinching a wild-card place and with Lionel Messi set to participate at some level with the Argentine now recovered from injury. The striker is currently back with the Albiceleste as they face Paraguay and Peru in 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Messi will then return to Fort Lauderdale where he will begin preparation for for the final season games.
