Inter Miami transfer market: signings, losses and rumors
As soon as Inter Miami did not have the opportunity to qualify for the MLS playoffs, Tata Martino began designing the 2024 version of the Herons. The first thing he did was cut four players that he was no longer going to take into account: the Ecuadorian Dixon Arroyo, Jake LaCava, the Mexican Víctor Ulloa and the Venezuelan Josef Martínez. And the departure of Kamal Miller, a central defender who played a crucial role in the previous season, was confirmed.
As for defenders, two Argentines have been in the spotlight in recent weeks. The first was Leandro González Pires, since River decided to buy his pass for an amount close to $300,000. The other was Marcos Rojo, because the Boca captain rejected an offer from Inter Miami to move to soccer in the United States.
The great, and for now only, incorporation of Inter has been Luis Suárez. Lucho arrives free, from Gremio de Porto Alegre, where he had an extraordinary performance in 2023. Despite his 37 years, Pistolero participated in 53 games, scoring 27 goals and providing 19 assists. His performance was crucial in achieving the Gaucho Championship and the Gaucho Cup Winners’ Cup, and he was recognized with the Brasileirao Golden Ball.
As for possible additions, notable names have been mentioned. One of them is Luka Modric. Real Madrid’s number 10 is not a priority for Carlo Ancelotti and the Croatian would not take a dim view of a departure from the White House. His good relationship, both with Leo and Beckham, might help his arrival. However, the latent possibility of Saudi Arabia threatens Inter’s aspirations.
Another who has been mentioned, but whose possibilities are reduced day by day are: Ivan Rakitic (“I don’t think regarding anything other than playing here, continuing here. There is no better place than Seville,” he argued), Sergi Roberto (” The rumors regarding Inter Miami or Palmeiras… All lies,” highlighted the Barcelona captain) and David De Gea (free from Manchester United since June, but with serious chances of going to the Saudi Pro League)
