Leo Messi would already be making a move towards the next transfer market and would have conveyed a very specific request to the management of Inter Miami. According to the rumor circulating in the last hours, the Argentine captain would have asked David Beckham, owner of the American franchise, for the signing of Pedro Rodríguez, with whom he shared some of the most successful years of his career at Barcelona.

The Canary winger has just finished his contract with Lazio and is free to negotiate with any club. This situation makes Pedro a very attractive market opportunity for several teams, although the interest of Inter Miami could change the scenario if the discussions progress.

Messi wants to share a dressing room with Pedro again

The excellent relationship between Messi and Pedro has never been lost since they coincided in the first team of Barcelona. Both were part of a historic generation that won multiple titles under Pep Guardiola's leadership, sharing the spotlight with players like Xavi Hernández, Andrés Iniesta, or Sergio Busquets.

Now, with the Argentine becoming the main reference at Inter Miami, the possibility of reuniting arises again. The American club continues to explore the market to reinforce its squad with internationally experienced players, and the name of the Spanish forward fits perfectly into that profile.

The alleged request of Messi to David Beckham also responds to a sporting matter. The eight-time Ballon d'Or winner believes that the Tenerife winger can still provide imbalance, experience, and a competitive mentality that would be very valuable in MLS.

David Beckham considers a low-cost operation

The fact that Pedro has ended his connection with Lazio significantly facilitates any negotiation. Inter Miami would not have to pay a transfer fee, focusing solely on reaching a salary agreement with the veteran attacker.

At 38 years old, the Spanish international continues to offer competitive performance. During the 2025-26 season, he played 33 official matches with Lazio, scoring five goals and providing two assists, showing that he still has the ability to make a difference in the final third of the field.

For that reason, David Beckham seriously values the addition. The club's sports policy has shown in recent markets that it combines established stars with experienced players capable of raising the team's competitive level.

Pedro maintains a great reputation

Although his time in Italy has come to an end, Pedro continues to attract interest in different leagues. His experience in LaLiga, the Premier League, and Serie A, along with his extraordinary track record, make him a very appealing addition to any ambitious project.

The winger has played in more than 800 professional matches, scored over 200 official goals, and has won all possible titles with both Barcelona, the Spanish national team, and Chelsea. This trajectory reinforces the idea that he can still provide leadership on and off the field.

Inter Miami continues to build a team of legends

Since Messi's arrival, Inter Miami has chosen to surround the Argentine with players he has already shared a dressing room with. The signings of Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suárez confirmed a strategy that could now be expanded with another old acquaintance from the Blaugrana squad.

David Beckham's presence at the helm of the project is also crucial. The former English footballer aims to establish the club as an international reference and considers it essential to maintain a competitive squad to aim for new titles both in the MLS and continental competitions.

There is currently no closed negotiation or definitive agreement, but the fact that Pedro is free after the end of his contract facilitates any movement. If Messi's desire ends up becoming a real operation and Inter Miami presents a convincing proposal, the reunion between two of the protagonists of Barcelona's best era could become a reality in the United States in the coming weeks.
