Messi Meets America follows Messi, 36, as he forever changes "the face of soccer in North America" by joining the Major League Soccer team Inter Miami CF.

The show takes viewers behind the scenes as Messi leads his new team to a Leagues Cup title and beyond.

"From selling out record crowds across America at breakneck speed, to his incredible last-minute game-winning goal in his very first match, to moments with Messi and his Inter Miami CF teammates, the series chronicles Leo's immersion in America, the remarkable journey and transformation of Inter Miami CF, and most significantly, the impact he is currently having on soccer in North America as 'Messi Mania' crisscrosses the continent," an official synopsis reads.

Messi Meets America is executive produced by Tim Pastore, Patrick Milling Smith, Brian Carmody, Matt Renner and Scott Boggins. The series is produced for Apple by Smuggler Entertainment and in association with Major League Soccer.
