DAVID BECKHAM’S Inter Miami are allegedly “screwed” ahead of the new MLS season.
And a host of stars are reportedly available for transfer as they desperately look to get with the league’s strict salary structure.
Inter Miami have become the American top-flight’s premiere franchise following the arrivals of superstar Lionel Messi and his ex-Barcelona team-mates Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
However, owner Beckham and the rest of the club chiefs need to make major adjustments in order to meet MLS rules.
The Athletic states that they must come up with more allocation money and could have to shift a number of salaries in order not to breach the requirements.
They claim that a source informed that DeAndre Yedlin, Sergii Kryvstov, Gregore, Jean Mota, and Robert Taylor are all available for transfer in order to meet roster regulations.

This report also added that a high-ranking sporting executive at a different club said: “They are screwed. Trust me.”
The specific amount that Inter Miami needs to raise has not been disclosed.
