Lionel Messi has broken into the Inter Miami scene explosively. It took three appearances for the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner to break into the top ten all-time goalscoring list. The Argentine netted five goals in his first three Inter Miami appearances, although he is yet to make his MLS debut.

But what will it take the Argentine World Cup winner to top the goalscoring charts for Vice City?
