The arrival of the Brazilian international would expand the list of figures who have chosen the Florida franchise’s sporting project. Currently, the squad has important names such as Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez and Rodrigo de Pauland now he is preparing to add one of the most recognized midfielders in world football.
The move was made while the 34-year-old is competing in what is shaping up to be his last World Cup. Casemiro is part of the Brazil squad led by Carlo Ancelotti and has started both in the draw against Morocco and in the 3-0 victory over Haiti.
Messi, key part in the Brazilian’s decision
According to information from AimMessi’s presence had an important influence on the footballer’s choice. Sources close to the club indicated that Casemiro opted for the Inter Miami sports project and the possibility of settling in the United States with his familydespite having proposals from Saudi Arabia.
Before closing the operation, it was necessary to resolve an administrative situation within the MLS. The Los Angeles Galaxy owned the player’s Discovery Rights, a condition that represented an obstacle to completing the signing. Finally, the parties involved reached an understanding that allowed them to move towards the final agreement.
The Brazilian’s eventual arrival will also mean a change of scenery compared to a good part of his career. For years he was one of the protagonists of the confrontations between Valid Madrid and Barcelona, where he maintained an intense sporting rivalry with Messi. Now both would share a locker room in search of new objectives within American soccer.
The transfer will also mark the end of Casemiro’s European spell. The midfielder closed a four-season cycle in Manchester United and recently played his last game for the English club in the 3-2 victory over Nottingham Woodland. After that match, he received a standing ovation from the fans at Musty Trafford and experienced a special moment with his family on the pitch.
With the incorporation of the Brazilian, Inter Miami would reinforce a strategy focused on gathering international experience and talent. The MLS continues to attract recognized figures from world football and Casemiro is emerging as one of the most relevant names that will arrive in the league once the 2026 World Cup concludes.
