Images of Lionel Messi shopping in Miami alongside Antonela Roccuzzo have gone viral on social media. Fans on Twitter reckon the Argentina captain looks happier than he ever was during his Paris Saint-Germain stint.

Messi is set to be unveiled as an Inter Miami player on July 16, 7:30 p.m. ET. He joins the MLS club as a free agent on the expiration of his PSG contract on June 30.

Messi has started living in Miami and was spotted in a mall with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo and the rest of the family. One fan reacted to the images by tweeting:

"More happy here than he ever was at PSG."

Messi spent two seasons in the French capital playing for the Parisians. However, his stint was not as frutiful as his one at Barcelona, having managed 32 goals and 34 assists in 75 games across competitions.

The Argentine was often criticised by fans and pundits for his performances, which seemingly took a toll on the player. Hance, fans think Messi is way happier after moving to Inter Miami than he was in Paris.
