Inter Miami: Paul McDonough has learned Atlanta United lessons
Inter Miami sporting director will not meaninglessly chase a big European name. He has learned the lessons from his Atlanta United success.
If anyone knows how to build an expansion team and make it competitive from the moment it takes to the pitch, it is former Atlanta United vice-president of soccer operations, Paul McDonough.
McDonough was heavily involved in assembling arguably the most successful team in MLS history. Playoffs in the first season, an MLS Cup in the second, the Campeones Cup and U.S. Open Cup in the third, as well as setting records for players sold, bought, and home attendance. Atlanta United are the success story of modern MLS.
