Inter Miami will name Javier Mascherano as its next head coach, per Felipe Cardenas and Pablo Maurer of The Athletic.
Mascherano has a long-standing connection with Inter Miami star Lionel Messi.
"The 40-year-old will be reunited with Lionel Messi after the two spent nearly a decade together at Barcelona, winning 19 titles as teammates at the Catalan club," Cardenas and Maurer wrote. "Messi and Mascherano played on the Argentina national team for 13 years and remain close friends."
Mascherano replaces Gerardo "Tata" Martino, who left the club for personal reasons.
