Mascherano’s First Signing for the Second Half of the Year
After intense negotiations, Inter Miami reached an agreement with Atlético Madrid to acquire Rodrigo De Paul, the 31-year-old Argentine midfielder, in a deal around 15 million euros. One of the highest-paid players on the squad, just behind Lionel Messi.
De Paul, who preferred to move to Miami despite offers from Europe and South America, joins a roster that includes Messi, Luis Suárez, and Busquets. He will be a key piece in the second half of the year aiming for the highly coveted second star in the Leagues Cup.
The player, a World Cup champion in Qatar 2022, will have his first MLS experience, signing a four-year contract with an annual salary of $10 million, making him the second-highest paid after Messi ($12 million).

The midfielder, who will not participate in Atlético Madrid’s pre-season, signed a four-year contract with a hefty buyout clause, becoming one of the most talked-about signings in U.S. soccer history.
