“Blaise is one of the most successful midfielders of his generation, and we are delighted to have signed him for Inter Miami. His world class quality and leadership will be key attributes for the club,” said Inter Miami sporting director, Paul McDonough.

Matuidi spent three seasons at Juventus after being signed from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), where he played with Beckham. During his time with the Bianconeri, he won the league title every season and proved to be an important part of the Old Lady’s squad.

Inter Miami have lost six of the six league games played since joining the competition at the start of the season. Beckham warmly welcomed the arrival of his former teammate.

“I am very excited to welcome my partner Blaise to Inter Miami. He is a great player and talent and a good figure,” he stated

“Having a World Cup winner with Matuidi’s qualities in our new team is a proud moment, for us owners and for the fans. For me personally, having a former team-mate join our club is something very special, and I can’t wait. To welcome him and his family to South Florida, “Beckham continued.
