Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber revealed any plan to bring Lionel Messi to the league will likely be a similar deal to the one signed by David Beckham when he joined the Los Angeles Galaxy 16 years ago.
Messi - a World Cup champion after leading Argentina to glory in Qatar - is scheduled to be a free agent this summer and the legendary forward star is in negotiations with his current club Paris Saint-Germain about extending his stay in the French capital. However, the 35-year-old is also in talks with Inter Miami over a potential move.
Messi remains one of the best players in the world and won the Golden Ball at the World Cup, which ran in November and December. If the MLS is going to bring the Argentine to the United States, the league would ave to come up with major compensation to lure him away from Europe.
