Why Inter Miami reunion with Lionel Messi is ‘appealing’ to Neymar as Brazilian superstar hints at reforming ‘MSN’ strike force in MLS

<p>The Brazil international forward is currently plying his trade for Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Hilal. He has, however, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/neymar-why-needs-mls-transfer-lionel-messi-spark-barcelona-msn-strike-force-reunited-inter-miami/bltc91e8a68866c40a5" target="_blank">endured more injury struggles in the Middle East</a> and will see his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/revealed-when-inter-miami-make-move-neymar-reform-msn-strike-force-lionel-messi-luis-suarez-mls/blte7259e7e359e7d9e" target="_blank">current contract expire in the summer of 2025</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Neymar has been <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/neymar-wants-revive-msn-al-hilal-star-opens-door-lionel-messi-luis-suarez-reunion-inter-miami-contact-ex-barcelona-team-mates/bltd37a13a54ab8d64c" target="_blank">hinting at making a move to MLS</a>, with the 32-year-old telling <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/01/07/sport/neymar-msn-reunion-world-cup-brazil-spt/index.html" target="_blank"><em>CNN Sports</em></a>: “Obviously playing again with Messi and Suarez would be incredible. They are my friends, we still speak to each other, it would be interesting to revive this trio. I am happy at Al Hilal and in Saudi Arabia, but who knows. Football is full of surprises.”</p>

WHAT NEYMAR SAID

<p>Any switch to Florida would also see Neymar link up with ex-Barca colleague Javier Mascherano – with the former Argentina international now filling a prominent managerial post in the United States. Inter Miami have <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/inter-miami-explain-how-neymar-reunion-lionel-messi-could-happen-brazilian-superstar-mls-reform-msn-united-states/bltd5bdc81df7152f81" target="_blank">remained coy on their recruitment plans</a>, with managing owner Jorge Mas saying of the Neymar rumours: “The key word is if he were to come available. He is an Al-Hilal player now. He’s not available to us. I have always said we aspire to bring great players to our team and to our league. We have a lot of roster limitations and restrictions, but were there no restrictions, I said it and I’ll repeat it, we have an unlimited budget. We are aspirational. If there is ever a chance to bring the calibre of a player like Neymar or others, we will not hesitate.” </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The <a href="https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/mls/inter-miami/article298132948.html " target="_blank"><em>Miami Herald</em></a> claims that “the chance to experience a more relaxed lifestyle in the United States and reunite on the field with close friends is appealing” to Neymar, who continues to mull over his options. He has been a regular visitor to that part of that world over the years, with NBA action featuring close friend Jimmy Butler of the Miami Heat often being taken in.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Neymar would, however, need to accept a pay cut in order to link up with Messi and Co once more. His deal in Saudi Arabia, which is said to be worth as much as $100 million (£81m), includes a number of perks such as a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/mansion-three-saunas-nine-vehicles-neymar-demands-al-hilal-psg/bltda2e26b279519e2d" target="_blank">25-bedroom mansion and access to a private plane</a>.</p>
