How Inter Miami could line up with Lionel Messi alongside Premier League legend as Beckham plots American revolution

DAVID BECKHAM is plotting his own American revolution with Inter Miami.

However, the club are now reportedly closing in on a transfer for Lionel Messi after he left Paris Saint-Germain.

The seven-time Ballon d'Or winner turned down Barcelona and a colossal offer from Saudi Arabia before deciding on his move to the United States.

And now he may be joined by Liverpool icon Roberto Firmino.

The Brazilian, who left the Reds after the expiry of his contract, has been linked with a move to Beckham's outfit by Transfermarkt's Manuel Veth.

Meanwhile, Jordi Alba and Luis Suarez have also been linked with a move to the franchise by journalist Gaston Edul.

This also comes after Miami declared they wanted to add Barcelona legend Sergio Busquets to their ranks.

So how would this work on paper?

Messi, Suarez and Firmino would spearhead the club's attack as they look to shoot the club up from the root of the table.

Busquets meanwhile, would anchor the team's midfield alongside Jean Mota - who is currently injured - and Dixon Arroyo.

Former Tottenham star DeAndre Yedlin would likely be an overlapping presence from right back, while Spaniard Jordi Alba would line up on the left.

At the core of the team's defence Christopher McVey would likely partner Sergiy Kryvtsov.

Drake Callender would then complete the XI in goal.
