Lionel Messi will not be joining David Beckham’s US franchise Inter Miami CF at the end of the season, according to his representative.
A report from The Times claimed that the Argentina superstar was in line to become the highest earner in MLS history when his deal at Paris Saint-Germain expires in the summer. It suggested that an agreement was close and that he would put pen to paper after the World Cup.
Qatar is expected to be 35-year-old Messi’s last finals appearance with Argentina having been among the pre-tournament favourites for the trophy. He’s already got two goals, one of which came against Mexico in Saturday’s vital 2-0 win following their humiliating 2-1 loss to Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
