While Messi, 36, has had a sensational start to life at Inter Miami, Thiago seems to be enjoying himself too.

Video footage has emerged of the youngster playing with other kids.

In the short clip, Thiago can be seen hugging team-mates in celebration.

Fans will be hoping that Messi’s eldest child will be a chip off the old block.

But as long as his boy is enjoying it, you’d imagine the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner will be happy and proud.

Messi’s legions of fans loved seeing Thiago play.

One wrote: “Son of the King.”

While a second tweeted: “GOAT Reborn.”

A third commented: “Little goat cooking.”

And another added: “Future GOAT is getting ready …”

Messi is loving life in Miami.

He has scored 11 goals in 11 games since joining from PSG, while also laying on five assists.

His incredible performances even dragged his side to Leagues Cup glory.

And he also made the 12-man shortlist for the Fifa The Best gong for best men’s player, announced earlier today.
