David Beckham's first words on new Inter Miami head coach ahead of Lionel Messi arrival

Inter Miami have finally announced Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino as their new head coach to replace Phil Neville.

The former Barcelona and Argentina national team manager joins the MLS club ahead of Lionel Messi, whom Martino coached during both previous jobs, officially joining the team at some stage this summer. Long-time teammate Sergio Busquets, who also worked with his soon-to-be coach in the Catalan capital, is another signing for the South Florida franchise this summer.

Despite the announcement, Inter Miami is still awaiting documentation to allow Martino to start working in the United States again. The Argentine previously spent two seasons coaching Atlanta United in the country, winning MLS Cup during his second season in charge.
