In a clear sign of the growing draw of Major League Soccer and the Lionel Messi effect, Spanish international left-back Sergio Reguilón has made it explicitly clear that his only desired destination is Inter Miami CF.

The 28-year-old former Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur defender, who is currently a free agent, has reportedly told his agent to reject lucrative proposals from both La Liga clubs in Spain and the Iranian side Persepolis.
These offers were said to be nearing an impressive net salary of €4 million per season.
The Miami Project is the Key
Reguilón’s decision highlights that his career choice isn’t purely financial, but a strategic move driven by the ambition of the Miami project.
By joining the Herons, Reguilón is poised to immediately fill the void left by the recently announced retirement of his compatriot, Jordi
Alba, who will conclude his professional career at the end of the current MLS season.
Inter Miami’s negotiations are now understood to be in an advanced stage, with all parties working quickly to finalize the deal.
A Timely Arrival for the Playoffs
This signing is critical for Inter Miami as they head into the MLS Cup playoffs. As a free agent, Reguilón can be registered immediately, potentially offering a significant boost to a defense that has, at times, looked vulnerable this season.
The arrival of Reguilón will not only provide a top-tier replacement for Alba but also strengthen the Spanish-speaking core of the team, which already includes Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Luis Suárez.
The move provides the young, energetic full-back with a platform to re-launch his international career while helping the Florida club challenge for their first-ever MLS Cup.
It’s a clear message to the football world: the appeal of playing alongside a global legend like Messi is now outstripping major salary offers from traditional European and emerging Middle Eastern leagues.
