Following Messi, inter Miami Secures Angel Di Maria and Suarez for American Professional Football Tournament.
Inter Miami is interested in recruiting Angel di Maria, the player whose contract with Juventus has just expired.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Inter Miami is considering the option of signing Di Maria. The two sides began to come up with some agreements. However, the barrier of this team is that the Argentine midfielder still wants to continue to play at the top of Europe. Benfica, Di Maria’s former team, is one of the competitors to Inter Miami.
If successfully recruiting Di Maria, Inter Miami will help Leo Messi have a good partner in attack. In real life, Di Maria and Messi are close friends. They have been playing together since they were young players. The duo won many noble titles together such as the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the Copa America 2021 and the culmination of the 2022 World Cup.
Currently, Di Maria is a free agent. He expired his contract with Juventus when the 2022/23 season ended and the two sides did not continue to renew it. This season, he could not have a stable performance due to frequent injuries.
Besides Di Maria, Inter Miami also wants to recruit two more former Messi teammates, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets. Of the two, the team playing in the MLS is particularly interested in Busquets. After parting with Barca, this defensive midfielder also said that he considered moving to the US to play because he liked life in the United States.
Inter Miami is at the bottom of the table (15th place) in the East region in MLS 2023. Last week, the team just fired coach Phil Neville. Currently, Javier Morales takes the role of interim coach. Inter Miami is in talks to invite Tata Martino to lead the team. Coach Martino used to coach Messi’s Barca in the 2013/14 season.
