Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas has revealed the club will "push" to try and sign Lionel Messi from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Argentinian international only joined the French outfit at the start of the season following his departure from Barcelona, and he has made 16 appearances in Ligue 1 this season, picking up two goals in the process.
Messi has a relationship with David Beckham, who is also involved with the Major League Soccer club, but it is currently unknown if the attacker is planning on leaving his current side.
"Leo Messi is still one of the best players in the world, his skills have not diminished. I think, and David has a relationship with him, if he does leave PSG, at the time he leaves it, we would love to see Lionel Messi be a player at Inter Miami and be part of our community," Mas told the press.
"Can it happen? Look, we will push. I am an optimist at heart. Could I see that happening? It is a possibility."
Messi secured an assist at the weekend during PSG's 3-1 victory over Saint Etienne.
