Doha, Qatar: Lionel Messi will be joining American club Inter Miami CF for the upcoming season.
Owned by the former British footballer David Beckham, Inter Miami CF has successfully reached an agreement with the superstar Argentine forward, according to the Italian journalist and football transfers expert Fabrizio Romano.
The seven-time Ballon d'Or winner desired to return to Barcelona, but the financial constraints imposed by the club's financial fair play regulations have rendered any ambitious plans for Messi's homecoming impossible.
Consequently, Messi has opted for an exciting new chapter in Major League Soccer (MLS) with Inter Miami CF.
The greatest of all time (GOAT), as his fans like to call him, had also received an offer from Saudi Arabian club AL Hilal, worth $500 million per season. The Agentine however chose to embark on his new adventure in MLS.
