Lionel Messi has made history by winning the MLS Golden Boot for the second consecutive season, as announced on November 7, 2026, in Miami, Florida.
The Inter Miami CF forward secured the award after a game against Charlotte FC at Nu Stadium, where a fan displayed a sign honoring the Argentine star. The achievement marks the first time a player has claimed back-to-back Golden Boot honors in MLS history.
Photographer Nathan Ray Seebeck captured the moment. The news was reported by Mac Scarce for Gameday Times on November 8, 2026.
