Lionel Messi is back. Inter Miami CF convened for its first day of preseason training on Monday, but the surroundings look starkly different from the last time the Argentinian took the field with his South Florida squad.

Meanwhile, forward Fafa Picault, one of the new players in Inter Miami camp, is feeling at home. The 33-year-old Haitian American spent his teen years in Cutler Bay, where his family still lives. He attended Miami Killian High School and played for local youth clubs and the Fort Lauderdale Strikers before heading overseas.

Lionel Messi will return to action for Inter Miami on January 18th in a friendly against Club América, followed by his official MLS debut on January 22nd against New York City FC.
