According to Marca (Spain), Inter Miami Club President David Beckham will invite coach Xavi Hernandez to reunite with Messi, after coach Tata Martino suddenly resigned following the defeat in the MLS Cup play-off round.
Previously, the news that Mr. David Beckham would invite coach Xavi Hernandez to reunite with Messi at Inter Miami for the 2025 season was rumored, after coach Tata Martino disappointed because he could not take the team further in the MLS Cup (American professional soccer) play-off round.
Coach Tata Martino joined Inter Miami in June 2023 at the same time as Messi arrived at the team. Together they won the 2023 Leagues Cup and just won the 2024 MLS Supporters’ Shield with a record 74 points. However, the Argentine coach was heavily criticized for not completing his most ambitious goal, winning the MLS Cup.
According to the American press and journalist Gaston Edul of TyC Sports channel: “Coach Tata Martino and Inter Miami have agreed to end their contract 1 year early by consensus. Coach Tata Martino is said to want to leave the team for personal reasons. Both sides will hold a press conference this weekend to announce all decisions.”
In more than 1 and a half years leading Inter Miami, coach Tata Martino, in addition to the successes in the Leagues Cup and Supporters’ Shield, he could not bring the team past the quarter-finals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup and successfully defend the Leagues Cup title. But he was successful in helping young players Diego Gomez and Tomas Aviles play increasingly well, combining impressively with seniors such as Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
In the 2025 season, David Beckham’s ambition is to turn Inter Miami into the number 1 force in American football, to win the MLS Cup and aim for the Club World Cup. Therefore, after coach Tata Martino left, this president is aiming to invite coach Xavi Hernandez. In addition, he is recruiting top stars to continue to join.
However, before the team is restructured, David Beckham and co-owners such as billionaire Jorge Mas will have to decide whether to extend the contracts of players whose contracts are about to expire, such as Jordi Alba, Sergii Kryvtsov, Matias Rojas, Marcelo Weigandt, Yannick Bright. Similarly, they will negotiate new contracts with Luis Suarez, Nicolas Freire and Oscar Ustari.
