Sergio Busquets will join Inter Miami, double signing teased by MLS club
Inter Miami are preparing to announce the signing of Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets, according to reports.
<p>Inter Miami's billionaire co-owner Jorge Mas has teased a double signing on Twitter, with reports claiming Sergio Busquets is ready to confirm a move to Inter Miami.</p>
<p>The eyes of the world were on Miami earlier this month when the MLS club confirmed the capture of Lionel Messi.</p>
<p>Rumours immediately surfaced that the World Cup winner would be joined by Busquets and one other star.</p>
<p>Planet Sport reported early in June that Jordi Alba and Angel Di Maria are among the names being linked.</p>
<p>Messi, Busquets and Alba featured together at Barcelona, while international teammate Di Maria labelled it a dream come true when the pair featured together at club level.</p>
<p>Although the move is receiving minimal attention in major outlets, sources in Miami and Barcelona have all but confirmed the deal is set to happen in the past 24 hours.</p>
<p>The 35-year-old is expected to join as a designated player with each MLS side having three DP slots to utilise.</p>
<p>DP's are exempt from the salary cap, which is the league's financial fair play rules, meaning the Spaniard will be on a sizeable wage.</p>
<p>Mas posted a photo of three blank Miami shirts on Twitter, one of which will be allocated to Lionel Messi.</p>
