THis defensive line is considered by many to be Inter Miami’s weakness, including the goalkeeper, so he wouldn’t be a disadvantage as a replacement next season.
Oscar Ustari, who boasts a close friendship with Lionel Messi, has missed several games due to injury and has even lost his starting spot. This, along with his age of 39, are factors that could influence the club’s decision to look for a more regular and promising goalkeeper for next season.

According to various media reports, the Florida club is interested in signing Orlando City’s current goalkeeper Pedro Gallese, but his contract expires in December and he has already announced that he will not continue with the Lions.
Messi wants Inter Miami to strengthen defense
Messi has made no secret of his ambitions to win the 2025 MLS Cup and understands that to achieve this he needs to strengthen his team at the back. In a recent interview, the Argentine star clarified:
Must consistently improve defense to win MLS Cup
These words appear to have been heard by the board, which is already considering options to strengthen the goalkeeper position. The most mentioned name is Peruvian goalkeeper Pedro Gallese, who is a mainstay for Orlando City and could be signed at the end of the year.
Pedro Gallese talks about a possible move to Inter Miami
Gallese himself said he had no problem joining Inter Miami, despite the rivalry between Orlando City and Inter Miami, both Florida teams.
Any options will be displayed. We have no problem going to a team that was our rival. But they have a goalkeeper so you have to respect him.
Pedro Gallese, the ideal option for Miami
Gallese, 35, has reflexes, leadership and a good read of the game. He also has experience in MLS and with the Peruvian national team, making him the ideal profile for Inter Miami as they look to reduce their conceded goals and gain solidity in key moments.
What is Pedro Gallese worth?
According to specialist website Transfermarkt, the Peruvian goalkeeper has a market value of $500,000. However, his contract ends at the end of 2025, meaning he could join Inter Miami on a free transfer.
However, a goalkeeper of his stature is expected to have multiple offers, so Miami will need to act quickly to convince Gallese to join their ranks, and according to a report from Athlon Sports, David Beckham’s club are willing to take advantage of his contractual status, which fits perfectly into Miami’s financial strategy.
What’s next for Inter Miami?
Inter Miami will be fighting for their lives in Game 3 of the first round against Nashville on November 8th at 12pm ET.
With the announcement of the retirement of Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, Inter Miami lost two of their most important defensive players, so it is expected that they may prioritize acquiring players from midfield to the back, starting with a goalkeeper, in this winter’s market.
