But did you know? I&#8217;ve always believed in Miami and brought the team here. I found my perfect partner, and when I found them, I knew anything was possible. On the back of our shirts it says: Freedom to Dream.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote-author\">David Beckham (Apple TV)<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Having players like Luis Su\u00e1rez, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Rodrygo de Paul is an effort that will yield the desired results. Beckham knew from the beginning that if he wanted to succeed at Inter Miami, he needed the best players on the pitch and big names with commercial and marketing influence.<\/p>\n<p>The icing on the cake, the jewel in the crown is Leo Messi. What may have been a fanciful and utopian idea to many became a reality by Beckham&#8217;s management, who always believed that MLS was fertile ground for continued growth with the potential to become one of the most important tournaments on the continent.<\/p>\n<p>Messi surrendered because he understood that the Argentine player took it upon himself to lead his team to the championship both on and off the field. He found a perfect duality in Leo. It&#8217;s a footballer from another planet with commercial appeal, and a captain who has taken on the responsible leadership to move the project forward.<\/p>\n<p>Beckham wants to bring him to Inter Miami after he retires, but Messi has other plans and the former Manchester United player has revealed them himself.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">Beckham reveals the truth about Lionel Messi&#8217;s future<\/h2>\n<p>Happiness betrayed him. In an interview with Apple TV, David Beckham spoke about what the future holds for the Argentine player who has decided to say goodbye to the football field. If he missed it, it was because he believed his desire to be Miami&#8217;s neighbor could come true. However, this is not the case.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote\">\n<p>I want Messi to live in Miami after he retires. But Leo told me that he was only thinking about living near Camp Nou. No player loves Barcelona as much as he does. The Bar\u00e7a logo can also be seen on his legs and water bottle.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote-author\">David Beckham (Apple TV)<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marca.com\/en\/football\/mls\/2025\/12\/07\/6935cba946163f16428b45b9.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u25cbOne of the people most happy about Inter Miami winning the MLS Cup is David Beckham.
