He departs Europe with seven league titles to his name

David Beckham’s Inter Miami are set to announce the signing of French midfielder Blaise Matuidi from Juventus, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano. A deal has been agreed between the two clubs, with just the player’s medical remaining to conclude the transfer. He is expected to sign a three-year contract with the MLS team.

Matuidi will become Inter Miami’s first high profile signing from Europe, with the current squad mostly comprised of American players and a few south Americans who qualify through the designated player rule.

Throughout his time at Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus, Matuidi won seven league titles and a World Cup with France to boot. The dynamic midfielder will bring experience to a side whose first ever game was played this year, but unlike many previous MLS arrivals, he has plenty left in the tank.
