Inter Miami are reportedly close to agreeing a deal for Lionel Messi and are hoping to wrap up the transfer after World Cup 2022.

The Times are reporting that Inter are expecting him to join after his contract with PSG expires at the end of the season and will make him “the highest-paid player in the history of MLS.”

Inter Miami are also hoping to“further strengthen their side by recruiting players who can complement Messi’s skills.” Two names mentioned are Luis Suarez and Cesc Fabregas, who are both close friends and former team-mates.

The report reckons that PSG may still try to extend Messi’s contract but look like being unsuccessful.
