“Given David’s expertise in this area, it won’t be long until he’s cutting his teeth on a new drinks venture,” he also adds. Despite the English legend’s splendid future plans, he once revealed he isn’t a ‘big drinker’ and often enjoys a healthy lifestyle.

Regardless, Inter Miami’s co-owner generated tons of profit from Haig Club Whisky. Not to forget, it was also the ‘official whisky’ sponsor of Beckham’s Inter Miami team. Besides that, Inter Miami recently terminated Nick Marsman’s contract; following his verdict on the Herons’ signing of Lionel Messi.

With the arrival of Lionel Messi, Inter Miami is finally enjoying the taste of victory in the MLS. The World Cup champion addition to the squad has led the Herons one step closer to its ultimate goal. The Herons owner revealed that the club aims to become the most valuable MLS club after Messi’s signing.

Despite Inter Miami’s splendid performance in the past few matches, the Herons have recently parted ways with Nick Marsman. Marsman made headlines earlier this summer because of his statement on the seven times Ballon d’Or winner. He stated that Inter Miami was “not ready” for Messi’s arrival.
