Rodolfo Pizarro's drama at Inter Miami: returns to Liga MX?

On February 17, 2020, Inter Miami decided to buy Mexican midfielder Rodolfo Pizarro, paying more than $ 13 million to Rayados of Monterrey, making him its first franchise player; a year and three months later, he was left on the bench in a 3-2 road win over FC Cincinnati. 

The funny thing is that it is the first time since his arrival in Major League Soccer (MLS) that he has not entered the field, coming from the substitute bench; It is also the match that played the fewest minutes, remembering that in 2020 he was a reserve on two occasions, on that occasion playing a total of 32 minutes.

However, let us remember that Pizarro started in the middle of the week, in the painful defeat that he suffered by 0-2 against CF Montreal, being replaced in the 75th minute; on this occasion, his position was taken by Brek Shea, who also scored one of the goals in the victory of the weekend.

Rodolfo Pizarro more outside than inside Inter Miami?

The particular situation of the Mexican is contradicted by what was pointed out a week ago by the Florida franchise coach himself, Englishman Phil Neville, who assured that the former Chivas was a key player in his team's scheme for this season. "I'm pleased with Pizarro's work, he plays the 10th position very well; Rodolfo works and sacrifices himself for the team, now, what I feel the team needs from him is that magic, those assists, those goals that are his characteristic of him", assured the Inter Miami coach.

Rodolfo Pizarro's replacement would arrive from Europe

But the situation is becoming increasingly complex for the Aztec in the US league, after a week ago it was pointed out that from Serie A in Italy a new reinforcement would arrive for the black squad, which would take away a privileged position at the wheel. As we reported a few days ago, Inter Miami will go in search of Ashley Young, who was champion with Inter Milan, and that if he landed in the MLS, he would become a franchise player, removing that label from Pizarro, just like did at the beginning of the season with Matías Pellegrini, to leave his place to the Frenchman Blaise Matuidi.
