According to AS (Spain), Inter Miami President David Beckham and billionaire Jorge Mas, co-owner of the team, are carrying out a ‘campaign to liquidate’ many players, thereby making room for Di Maria and Neymar to reunite with Messi.
“Winter in Florida is not peaceful. Inter Miami’s “clearance campaign” by David Beckham and Jorge Mas is taking place in full swing with many players leaving. The upcoming transfer window of the Chase Stadium team will be hot, with the promise of big names like Di Maria and Neymar joining to reunite with Messi,” AS reported.
Inter Miami have already parted ways with their top players including striker Campana, goalkeeper CJ Dos Santos and attacking midfielder Diego Gomez. They are also about to let go of two players with high transfer values, Julian Gressel and Matias Rojas. In addition, about 7 other players will be released when their contracts expire or the loan period ends.
“The goal is clear: Inter Miami wants to free up the wage bill and create space to sign a number of other top star players to form a “super team” project like the ambition of Mr. David Beckham and billionaire Jorge Mas.
MLS’s (American professional soccer league) financial fair play rules are one of the biggest challenges for Inter Miami. Therefore, in order to sign top stars, they must meet salary regulations. As in the case of recruiting veteran striker Luis Suarez, they had to part with a few players, including Josef Martinez, to balance their finances,” AS emphasized.
“The same is true before the 2025 season, but Inter Miami has bigger ambitions, because the team will participate in world-class tournaments such as the FIFA Club World Cup, or the CONCACAF Champions Cup… Therefore, Mr. David Beckham wants his team to recruit more stars like Neymar or Di Maria (players whose contracts at their clubs are about to expire in June 2025). Thereby, together with Messi, Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, they will create an all-star squad for Inter Miami in a policy considered “Galactic”, similar to Real Madrid”, according to AS newspaper.
“However, to recruit Neymar or Di Maria or both of these stars, Inter Miami may have to wait until June 2025. Due to the current financial problem, it is clear that it cannot meet the demand. In the meantime, Mr. David Beckham’s team will have to focus on other possible targets to strengthen its strength, including in the goalkeeper position, defense, midfield and attack to support Messi and Suarez.
David Beckham and billionaire Jorge Mas are always eager to recruit Neymar and Di Maria, they need MLS to support the franchise, but they will not do so without conditions,” AS expressed.
Also according to AS : “Mr. David Beckham and billionaire Jorge Mas are taking a patient approach in the deals to recruit Neymar and Di Maria, just like they did with Messi. Whether in January 2025, or at the time before the FIFA Club World Cup starts, Inter Miami is determined to make the deal to recruit Neymar a reality.
Besides, they will also use Messi to convince their close friend Di Maria to come to America. At Inter Miami, patience is not only a virtue but also a strategy.
