It has already been two years since the football team that David Beckham has been fighting for, was accepted as an MLS club. Since 2020, they have been hosting matches at the, finally completed, DRV PNK Stadium at Fort Lauderdale. After the initial adjustment period, in this season they have a record of 14 wins and 14 losses, which is a record that prompted the interest of all the top Asian and European bookmakers.

The rumors tend to get verified

A few weeks ago, whispers and rumors began spreading around that there will be a ground breaking agreement transferring a huge star to the U.S.A., to wear the uniform of Beckham’s team. The Times dropped the bombshell with a piece that intimated that the deal was close to completion and the name of the legend was none other than Lionel Messi. His contract with PSG expires this summer and it would appear that the Argentine will become the player to break the record for the highest-paid footballer in the MLS.

The report also made references that Sergio Busquets, Luis Suarez and Cesc Fabregas are also discussing the possibility of joining forces with the American club. Should all of the above become a reality, there will be a major shift in the balance of forces in favor of Beckham’s side.

What are the chances

According to previous statements made, Messi had expressed an interest in playing in the U.S.A. as a dream of his to be fulfilled one day. Perhaps that day has arrived. The co-owner of Inter Miami Jorge Mas has repeatedly expressed the willingness to sign up the top footballers of the world to their team. However, the aspect that really makes the difference is probably David Beckham himself and the brand name that comes along with his baggage.

Since nothing is finalized yet, there is no information about the cost to the Herons for their efforts. Given that the current wages of the names mentioned comes to around a billion dollars, it will be worth waiting not only to see a final numbers, but also how the ownership of the club will manage to accommodate them, especially since their own stadium (to be named Miami Freedom Park) is still in the works of being built.

For the punters it would be a dream come true. Four top class players moving to Miami is definitely an intriguing proposition for profit to come pouring in. The word is that people are already looking to register for an account with a broker and be ready when the time comes to partake in the new venture of the British legend and the team of galacticos that he wants to build. We will definitely follow up on the report and keep you updated on the development.
