US football club, Inter Miami have confirmed the signing of Lionel Messi in a transfer that has stunned world football.
Inter Miami is co-owned by ex England skipper, David Beckham.
The Major League Soccer (MLS) club have won the race to sign Messi as a free agent, ahead of his departure from Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his contract.
They announced Messi’s arrival on social media with a 32-second video making reference to the interest from Barcelona and Al-Hilal – the clubs Miami have beaten to his signature – as well as people questioning whether a player of Messi’s stature would ever go to MLS.
The club’s managing owner Jorge Mas also tweeted an image of a figure shrouded in shadows wearing an Inter Miami ‘Messi 10’ shirt.
