Beckham’s Inter Miami makes first signings with Pellegrini and Carranza

The two 19-year-old attackers will trade the Argentine top-flight for Major League Soccer as the expansion franchise locks up its first players

David Beckham’s Inter Miami has made the first signings in club history, acquiring teenagers Matias Pellegrini and Julian Carranza, the MLS expansion side has announced.

Miami is scheduled to begin play in the 2020 MLS season, and sporting director Paul McDonough had previously told the Miami Herald the team was closing in on its first players.

Now those players have been confirmed as a winger in Pellegrini and a forward in Carranza, who are both 19 years old.
