According to several media sources, Argentine world champion Lionel Messi is moving to Inter Miami in Major League Soccer.
Inter Miami is owned by the Miami Freedom Park LLC group, which includes former soccer star David Beckham.
According to the portal “The Athletic”, Messi should receive a share of the income from the TV rights. In mid-June, Major League Soccer signed a ten-year, $2.5 billion deal with Apple TV. Apple is also planning a series about Messi. MLS sponsor Adidas is also said to be preparing an agreement with Messi.
Speculations about a move to Saudi Arabia and a return to Barcelona
There had previously been speculation about a move to Saudi Arabia to join Al-Hilal. Messi’s father Jorge had also spoken about a return to FC Barcelona.
Messi played his last game for Paris Saint-Germain last weekend. He will not extend his contract, which expires on June 30.
