Jorge Mas says Inter Miami want more and more as he continues to build a club structured around winning trophies.

Lionel Messi scored his 100th Miami goal and laid on an assist as the Herons secured the Campeones Cup title by beating Cruz Azul 2-0 on Wednesday.

That marked Miami's sixth title, albeit two of those came in the form of winning MLS' Eastern Conference, both in the regular season and via the playoffs.

The Supporters' Shield looks likely to evade Miami this season, with the Herons sitting nine points behind Nashville SC, but managing owner Mas feels there is still plenty more to come.

"I've always said Inter Miami is being built to lift trophies," Mas told Apple TV.

"Obviously, it helps to have the best player in the world of all time, Lionel Messi… I think we saw vintage Messi [against Cruz Azul].

"And looking forward to more. We've still got a lot to play for. I want to lift another [trophy].

"It's the first trophy we [can] lift in our new stadium, so it's amazing. And we're going to continue pushing, pushing the envelope, aspiring to be the best team in the Americas."

Miami host San Diego FC on Saturday, and Yannick Bright says the entire squad is inspired by Messi's stellar displays.

"This guy always wants to win, and it's an inspiration. Because when you see him doing it, it's contagious," Bright said of Messi.

"I'm happy. I'm honoured. Honestly, it's the highlight of my life having him as a team-mate. And I thank him for everything."

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Inter Miami – Lionel Messi

Messi has contributed to at least one goal in 12 of his last 13 regular-season matches, including the last seven in a row.

This is the fifth-longest run of league games with a goal contribution in Messi's career and his longest since an eight-match stretch in January-February 2021 with Barcelona.

San Diego FC – Anders Dreyer 

Dreyer has recorded 58 goal contributions in MLS (28 goals, 30 assists), second behind only Messi (81 – 48 goals, 33 assists) since debuting in 2025.

The San Diego attacker is one goal away from recording 10 goals and 10 assists in each of his first two MLS seasons, something only five players have done in the competition's history.

MATCH PREDICTION: INTER MIAMI WIN

This will be the first meeting between Miami and San Diego.

Should Messi play, then San Diego will be the 150th different club opponent of his career.

Miami have won one of their last eight regular-season matches (D5 L2), including drawing the last three in a row.

They had won eight of their previous 10 league matches (D1 L1), including six in a row, prior to winning one of the last eight.

San Diego suffered the worst loss in the club's short history on Sunday, a 5-0 home defeat to the Philadelphia Union, the club's third straight loss.

They have shipped eight goals over their last two matches after conceding just seven times in the previous eight league games combined.
