Inter Miami does not want to repeat what happened at the end of last season and is determined to star in the MLS transfer market. After the announcement of Luis Suárez, the Florida franchise continues to aim high in the transfer book, so much so that names like Luka Modric, David De Gea, Ivan Rakitic or Sergi Roberto are strongly rumored to land at the DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale.

 

Now, the leadership headed by Jorge Mas does not leave aside South American talent and in recent days they conducted surveys, without success, for Argentine soccer players such as Marcos Rojo, Héctor David Martínez and Cristian Medina. However, a new target appeared with a past in the Professional League, with experience in the MLS and who could sign at zero cost.

 

This is Nicolás Lodeiro. The Uruguayan midfielder became champion of the United States championship twice with the Seattle Sounders after his time at Boca Juniors and this December 31, his contract ends. In this context, Inter Miami was interested in his services according to the Uruguayan journalist Klaus German, who went so far as to affirm on his Twitter account that Nico "hangs out with Messi, Suárez, Busquets and Alba." If it happens, the native of Paysandú will once again share a team with Luis Suárez after having done so at Ajax in the Netherlands.
