Recently, a source confirmed that midfielder Angel Di Maria is negotiating his move to Inter Miami and will meet his close friend and compatriot Messi in the United States.
However, coach Tata Martino of the Florida Club recently denied the above information.
Speaking to the media after the 6-2 win over New York RB in the MLS, the coach said: “No, we don’t have any information on midfielder Angel Di Maria and Chiquito Romero. MLS has certain economic restrictions, certain limitations and “Obviously we are complying well with that at the moment, but it would not be feasible to buy any type of player at this time.”
After a record-breaking performance, Inter Miami’s Messi won the MLS Player of the Year award for the second consecutive time.
Messi was the MVP of Matchday 12 when he helped Inter Miami win 6-2 against the New York Red Bulls with 1 goal and 5 assists.
Thanks to this achievement, the Argentine forward made history by breaking two tournament records: Most assists in an MLS match (5); Contributed with most goals in an MLS match (6).
This achievement came after Messi’s performance in Round 11 against the New England Revolution, helping the former Barça star break two more tournament records: first MLS player to have at least 2 combined goals in 5 consecutive games and contributed the most goals (16) in MLS history after the first 7 games of a season.
