Angel Di Maria is reportedly set to play for Inter Miami of Major League Soccer. According to Leo Paradizo, the 36-year-old, whose contract with Benfica ends in June, has agreed to economic terms with the MLS side.

Now all that is left is for Di Maria to either arrive in June or be a fresh face as of 2025, in what is Messi’s final year of his current MLS deal. Di Maria is set to play his final tournament with the Argentine national team at the 2024 Copa America.

There are also reports that Di Maria would play six months with childhood club Rosario Central before embarking on his MLS journey. Di Maria’s arrival this season could cause Inter Miami to trade or sell a player in the summer to make room on their tightly salary-capped roster.
