With this scenario, many quality players dream of sharing a team with number 10, and the MLS is excited about it. Inter Miami is currently focusing on Messi's former teammates at Barcelona: Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, as well as his friend Di María.
The MLS club aims to build their team around Messi, and they clearly want some experienced players to join the ranks alongside possibly the greatest player of all time. Suarez has already confirmed that he won't join, but Busquets and Alba are targets for the club co-owned by David Beckham and are also being linked with two Argentine internationals, one of them being Angel Di Maria.
César Luis Merlo, who also works for TyC Sports, has mentioned Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes as other possible targets, two players who also played alongside Messi at Paris Saint-Germain. In April, Paredes showed his home to journalists, and someone pointed out the Best Player of La Liga 2020-21 award prominently displayed on his shelf.
When asked how he came to possess the trophy, Paredes said, "He [Messi] came to Paris, I asked him if he would give it to me, and he did." The arrival of the greatest player in history to Major League Soccer will be initially for two seasons. Messi will be the face of the United States' 2026 World Cup.
One of the most talked-about "big" signings was the possible arrival of Di Maria, Messi's teammate in the Argentine national team and World Cup champion in Qatar 2022. He was also a former teammate at PSG. How much did Beckham offer to "Fideo"?
David wants him to come to Miami no matter what, and Angel is in talks with Benfica, so the sum of the offer is around $4.5 million dollars. Di Maria, on the other hand, recently said, "I no longer dream about the next World Cup," he told ESPN. "I believe in the next Copa America, I will do everything possible, but I would love to be there."
"Leo has to be in the next World Cup, without a doubt. He is Leo. Seven Ballon d'Ors, Champions League, he won everything with Barcelona. He is the best in history."
What do you think about Inter Miami's idea of pursuing Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, Angel Di Maria, and Leandro Paredes?
