The iconic forward has propelled the club to an impressive 74 points this season, breaking the MLS single-season points record of 73 set by New England Revolution in 2021.
In a stunning display during the final match of the regular season, Messi netted a hat-trick in a dominant 6-2 victory over New England after coming on as a second-half substitute.
This performance not only solidified Inter Miami's record but also highlighted the impact the 2022 FIFA World Cup winner has had on football in the United States.
The eight-time Ballon d'Or winner became the first player in MLS history to score three times and assist a goal after being introduced from the bench, while he is also now the Florida outfit's all-time leading goalscorer with 33 goals in 36 matches.
With the playoffs set to kick off on Friday, Messi and his teammates are poised to make another significant impact.
The Herons will have home-ground advantage throughout the playoffs after winning the Eastern Conference.
