Voting for the MLS All-Star Game. Is Lionel Messi among the contenders?

Last week, on May 29th, voting commenced to determine the players who will participate in the MLS All-Star Game.

As reported by AS, fans, media, and MLS players themselves can make their selections for any player who will feature in the All-Star Game. Voting takes place for each position separately, and from a pool of 26 players, 12 will be chosen to participate in the MLS All-Star Game.

Among the contenders is Inter Miami forward Lionel Messi. He received the most votes as a forward/winger. Additionally, Busquets and Alba emerged as the most popular players in the defender and left-back positions respectively. Suarez occupies the third position in the list of forwards/wingers.

The MLS All-Star Game 2024 will take place on Wednesday, July 24, 2024, at Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio. The team will be coached by current Columbus Crew coach Wilfried Nancy.

Voting is open until Monday, June 10th, on the official MLS website.

It's worth noting that Lionel Messi achieved a unique milestone. The Argentine footballer has already notched up 25 goal involvements in the MLS, requiring just 12 matches, which is an absolute league record.
