world Cup winner Lionel Messi has confirmed that he will be signing for Major League Soccer side Inter Miami, who are owned by Man Utd legend David Beckham.

The 35-year-old forward had been linked with Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal, to join a league which already features Cristiano Ronaldo and now Karim Benzema.

But, with Messi’s two-year deal at PSG ending this month, he has confirmed in a joint interview with Spanish publications Mundo Deportivo and Sport he was set to head to the United States.
