Kenya youngster excited at the prospect of facing Lionel Messi

Kenyan international Richard Odada is looking forward to coming up against Lionel Messi in the Major Soccer League after the World Cup winner completed his transfer from PSG to Major Soccer League side Inter Miami.The Argentina national team campaign ended his European stay earlier this month by agreeing to a multi-million-dollar deal with Miami, making him the biggest name to grace the MLS. The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner had been linked with a return to Barcelona or a move to the Saudi Arabian League before he struck a deal with Miami.##NAJAVA_MECA_7324347##His transfer has been described as a major lift for the MLS, and Odada, who has been with the national team for the last two weeks, is excited at the possibility of sharing the pitch with the Argentina great. The Kenyan turns out for the Philadelphia Union, and a chance to play Messi is one that he is excited about.”Of course he (Messi) is the best player in the world. It will be nice to share a field of play with him. That will be unbelievable, and I am looking forward to it; it will be really good if I get that chance,” Odada told the People Daily.Despite being excited, he is too scared of coming up against the football magician.”Yes, I am excited, but football can be different depending on how you view it. He is the greatest player, but usually after 90 minutes, we are all the same. He has got two legs just like me, so there is nothing to worry about.”.Union will take on Miami this coming Sunday, but Messi will not be available for selection in the match.NSL: Sam Okoth shifts focus to lifting title after sealing FKFPL promotion
