Bale says Messi will enjoy MLS because losing has ‘no consequence’ there

• Welshman says pressure is a lot less than in Europe
• Messi due to make Inter Miami debut on 21 July

Gareth Bale believes Lionel Messi will enjoy life away from the crucible of European and international football when he starts his new career in MLS.

The World Cup winner is scheduled to make his debut for his new club, Inter Miami, on 21 July. And while his imminent arrival has generated plenty of interest in the US, Bale believes the pressure will be negligible compared to Messi's experience playing for Barcelona, Paris St-Germain and Argentina.
