Could Lionel Messi, possibly the greatest soccer player of all time, be taking his talents to South Beach? According to media reports on Wednesday, the former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain superstar is close to sealing a move to MLS with Inter Miami CF.
Sources have told ESPN that Inter Miami are the favourites to sign the 35-year-old. Despite Barca's efforts to adjust their payroll, Messi has opted not to wait any longer and has ruled out the Camp Nou as a destination for next season, according to sources, while ESPN has been told that Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal fear he has lost interest in moving to the Middle East.
