Messi has reached the long-awaited football pinnacle. After winning the world championship, the Argentine’s display case is already filled with everything possible, so the question is, “what’s next?”.
That “further” could be David Beckham and his MLS club Inter Miami. According to American sources, the Florida team is optimistic about talks with the “God of Football” this summer.
Is Lionel Messi going to join Inter Miami?
Inter co-owner Jorge Mas told the Miami Herald in June that he hopes to lure Messi to his side. That’s goal number one now.
“Together with David Beckham, we are aiming to bring the best players in the world to Miami,”
Mas said in the summer, as quoted by Sports Central.
“We want to be the benchmark for soccer in the United States. Leo is obviously the best player on the planet. I hope the conditions are met for him to play in the Inter Miami shirt. That’s what we’re aiming for. There’s nothing guaranteed, there’s no agreement, but I am a very optimistic person and I hope that in the future Leo Messi will be part of our project.”
Messi already has a home in Miami and spends his vacation there with his family. – I would like to play in the United States someday; it has always been one of my dreams – the Argentinian told the Spanish media last year

Is Messi in MLS deal possible?
Messi’s contract with PSG is ending, so he will be free to find a new employer after the season. An essential element of the puzzle is Beckham himself, who, as the ambassador of the Qatari at the ongoing world cup, has direct contacts with the owners of PSG. His relationship with Messi was cemented by a long advertising cooperation with one of the clothing companies. The next World Cup will take place in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, so interest in football will grow there. Therefore, it may be the right time for Messi to move to Miami.
