Inter Miami ‘aspire to’ Lionel Messi signing, says ‘very optimistic’ co-owner
Inter Miami hope to be able to sign Lionel Messi and establish themselves as “the benchmark of soccer in the United States”, co-owner Jorge Mas has reiterated.
The MLS outfit are owned by a group including former Manchester United, Real Madrid and England great David Beckham, so they are no strangers to big names.
But the arrival of seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi in the United States would likely represent a landmark transfer in the sport’s history.
For now, Messi, who had spent his entire club career with Barcelona until last year, is under contract at Paris Saint-Germain for another season, while there is the option for a further 12 months, too.
However, Inter are not giving up hope of recruiting the 35-year-old before he calls time on a legendary career.
