The Argentine star caused the departure of this player in the last hours.

While waiting for what will be the official presentation of Lionel Messi this Sunday with Inter Miami, the club that plays in Major League Soccer parted with one of the franchise players. The arrival of the Argentine star generated a huge revolution and brought with it the signing of Sergio Busquets and, possibly, Jordi Alba as well.

The arrival of Leo's friends makes Inter Miami occupy the place of his three franchises, since the MLS allows three players within its squad to be classified as designated players, those footballers whose contracts do not fully count. Which allows you to hire world stars and pay them stratospheric contracts, without going over the salary limit.

The first two places will go to Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets. The third was designated for Rodolfo Pizarro, but he terminated his contract with Inter and now leaves a free place for Jordi Alba to be appointed, which could possibly speed up negotiations in the coming hours.

The Mexican star did not convince in the MLS

Pizarro had arrived at Inter in 2020 as a star first-team signing. However, his performance was far from what they expected in Miami: he only added seven goals and provided 13 assists in 58 games with the club. He will go from being a franchise player to not even being within the club.
