Lionel Messi has announced he will be joining David Beckham's Inter Miami this summer.
The seven-time Balon d'Or winner has brought a close to his glittering career in European football after leaving Paris Saint-Germain upon the expiration of his contract. Messi spent two years in Paris after his emotional exit from a cash-strapped Barcelona.
Messi's future was up in the air this week and he was heavily linked with a move to join long-term rival Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia but he has instead decided to sign for MLS side Miami, co-owned by Manchester United legend David Beckham. "I made the decision that I am going to go to Miami,” Messi said in a joint interview with Spanish publications Mundo Deportivo and Sport. “I still haven’t closed it one hundred per cent. I’m missing some things, but we decided to continue on the path.”
