Beckham’s Miami eyeing English players

(UTV|COLOMBO) – “It’s someone you’re going to know who has coached before at the highest level and who has played at the highest level.”

Mas says the club’s first coach will “fit an attacking style”.

Inter Miami will join Nashville SC as new franchises in 2020, taking the MLS to 26 teams. Its eventual goal is 30.

So far Inter Miami have signed two players from clubs in Argentina – striker Julian Carranza from Banfield and midfielder Matias Pellegrini from Estudiantes.

Players including former Chelsea defender Gary Cahill and ex-Manchester United defender Antonio Valencia have been linked with the franchise.

“I think you will see if you look at our young signings, we’ve made substantial investments in them,” added Mas. “We’re going to couple them with players who have played in Europe who are very well known.

“We’ve looked at some English players. We’re having some conversations with some English players and we anticipate Inter Miami will have some English presence.”
