The transfer market is currently being upended by Inter Miami owner David Beckham. The owner of the American Inter Miami FC and former England international has high hopes. He desires Lionel Messi to join the MLS.
The Athletic, a normally trustworthy source, reports that Miami is absolutely certain that the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner will play in the United States in 2019. In fact, if Beckham has his way, the talks will be finished after the World Cup in Qatar. The former Real Madrid player had a positive impression of the parties’ alleged prior discussions.
Messi wants to snatch over more than only Inter Miami from Paris Saint-Germain. Barcelona is anxious to have him return to the Camp Nou. The Catalans believe they can entice the Argentinian to make a comeback because his contract is about to expire. Due to the club’s inability to continue supporting Messi, the club legend had to depart Barça last year.
If the Argentine does decide to relocate to the United States of America, Inter Miami does not offer the Argentine anything other than the fame of Beckham. The Florida-based team was founded in 2018 but didn’t join the MLS until 2020. With their best finish coming last season with a 12th position.

The winger’s departure is not acceptable to Paris Saint-Germain. The top team in France is excited about Messi and is drafting a contract proposal. Messi has a two-year contract extension option in Paris, but rumours have it that the Argentinean is not particularly interested in doing so.
Messi won’t make any decisions, though, until the World Cup is over. La Pulga has made the World Cup his top priority in order to devote all of his attention to the decisive competition. He wants Argentina to win the match overall. Considering that Messi has already tallied twelve goals for PSG and thirteen assists across all competitions, he will also be travelling to Qatar in great form.
