DAVID BECKHAM is working on a deal for a high-profile European-based player to join his Inter Miami side, according to reports.
The Manchester United legend was strongly linked with poaching David Silva from his former side’s local rivals at the end of the season.
David Beckham has been keen on a move to land David Silva on a free transfer for Inter Miami this summer
Spanish midfielder Silva has already confirmed he will end his hugely successful stint in the Premier League at the end of this upcoming campaign.
And he could be on the verge of becoming the face of Beckham’s new MLS outfit, with the club in the process of striking a deal for a high-profile Europe-based player, according to the Miami Herald.
The American side have been linked with a host of superstar names currently playing on this continent ahead of their MLS debut next month.
Becks has tried – and thus far failed – to lure superstars likes Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to the club, with a move for Joe Hart also mooted.
Inter Miami have also been tipped to make an incredible move for Edinson Cavani in the summer transfer window.
While SunSport exclusively revealed that the MLS newbies have set their sights on Manchester City ace Sergio Aguero.
Yet a move for the Argentine’s teammate Silva seems the most likely, with Beckham keen to bring in a Spanish-speaking superstar to maximise interest from south Florida’s large Hispanic community.
But should a deal be agreed, the 33-year-old will miss the first three months with his new side to finish the season with City.
Inter Miami are already in training at their new complex ahead of their debut MLS campaign following a series of setbacks.
Ahead of joining the top-tier of United States football next season, the side have signed exciting Argentine teenagers Matias Pellegrini and Julian Carranza as well as Celtic midfielder Lewis Morgan.
And in a discussion with Beckham for YouTube channel OTRO, Neymar struck a handshake agreement to join – in ten years’ time.
