Paris Saint-Germain forward Lionel Messi reportedly plans to sign for Inter Miami in 2023.
The Barcelona legend has endured a mixed first campaign at Parc des Princes, contributing 11 goals and 13 assists from 32 appearances but failing to lead PSG past the last 16 of the Champions League.
If speculation is to be believed, the 34-year-old will be losing main strike partner Kylian Mbappe in the coming weeks, the Frenchman seemingly on the brink of signing for Real Madrid.
According to DIRECTV Sports reporter Alex Candal, Messi will be following suit a year later when he departs the Ligue 1 giants at the end of his contract.

The report claims that the Argentina international will move to Inter Miami and also acquire 35% of shares in the MLS side, which currently has three owners in David Beckham, Jorge Mas and Jose Mas.
Inter Miami are enduring another disappointing season in the Eastern Conference, the team sitting second bottom having accumulated just 11 points from as many games.
