David Beckham has listened to Lionel Messi’s wish to join Inter Miami since the MLS club was founded. He was always confident he could bring the Argentine superstar to the US and is now delighted to have completed the deal.

All of a sudden, I heard Leo announce he was coming to Miami. Of course, that doesn’t surprise me. From the beginning, I’ve always said that if there’s an opportunity to bring the best players to Miami, regardless of the point in their career, I’ll do it. I’m always committed to my fans.”
He continued: “So when I heard that one of the best players – if not the best – had won everything in football, was still good, was young and doing it. what Messi is doing, wanting to play for my team, is a historic moment for the MLS.”
However, David Beckham cast doubt on Messi’s debut mentioned on July 21 and said they needed to do a thorough assessment of the new signing before letting him play. He added to make that decision for the coach: “We don’t know if Leo will play the game, or if he can play for a few minutes, because in the end, Messi needs to play the game. ready.
We have to protect Messi and make sure he wants to play, because he’s just been on vacation and just arrived in Miami. He trained well. I think Leo will decide when to play and whether he will play this game or not. But the atmosphere here will be great and hopefully we can win.”
