Lionel Messi surprised everyone by deciding to play for Inter Miami and join Major League Soccer (MLS). Messi had a big offer to play in Saudi Arabia but turned it down. Financial problems stopped him from going back to his boyhood club Barcelona. Instead, he chose to play for Inter Miami in the USA.

Since the news of Messi’s arrival, many people have become increasingly interested in Inter Miami. Consequentially, the team’s social media followers and ticket requests have gone way up.

Negotiations started 3 years ago to bring Messi to Miami

David Beckham was not surprised by the soccer star’s arrival in the USA. In an interview, Beckham revealed, “I have always said, from the word go, that if I had the opportunity to bring the best players in the game to Miami, at whatever time of their careers, I would do that. I have always made that commitment to our fans.”

Speaking about the negotiations to sign Messi, the Herons Co-owner Jorge Mas said, “[The negotiations lasted] three years. One-and-a-half years negotiating intensely. Lots of conversations with Jorge [Messi, Lionel’s dad]. I viewed it as done at the end of May. David talked to Leo, only over footballing topics, because he was still playing at PSG. He didn’t want him to feel any pressure.”

“Ronaldo Has Been Smoking”- Cristiano Ronaldo Slammed for His Audacious Saudi League Claim After Lionel Messi’s MLS Arrival

Since Messi’s arrival, MLS has gained global attention. Top clubs seek to elevate their level and attract fans to stadiums with marquee names. According to reports a prominent MLS team on the West Coast is eyeing a former Real Madrid player as their potential star player to rival Lionel Messi’s impact on Inter Miami FC.

LA Galaxy is looking to sign 2014 World Cup Superstar

James Rodriguez, the Colombian soccer star known for his outstanding performance in the 2014 World Cup and successful stints with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, has faced challenges in recent years due to injuries and frequent team changes. Recently, after parting ways with Olympiacos, he has remained inactive in soccer.

Reports suggest that $925,000,000 worth LA Galaxy is keen on bringing James Rodriguez aboard. However, a formal offer has yet to be made. With their star player, Javier Hernandez(Chicharito), sidelined due to a ligament rupture, LA  aims to make a significant impact in the market by acquiring a renowned player like Rodriguez.

Now the question arises whether James Rodriguez will have the same impact on LA Galaxy as Messi had for Inter Miami. Comparing both players wouldn’t be fair, but fans are undoubtedly eager to see how this situation unfolds. What do you think about the potential impact of James’ signing on the LA Galaxy? Let Us know in the comments.
