David Beckham renewed his pitch to hook up with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo at Inter Miami once their European careers are over

• David Beckham says both Ronaldo and Messi will be drawn to Inter Miami once they have finished playing in Europe.
• "Miami is a city that has that pull on players who have been playing in Europe," said Beckham.
• Miami already boasts former European stars Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi on its roster.

David Beckham says moving to Inter Miami would be an easy decision for Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi once they are done playing in Europe.

"When we announced Miami, there was always going to be talk about what players we were going to bring in, whether it was Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar," Beckham told ESPN.

"There was always going to be those discussions. I actually don't think it's a tough one for players to decide, to be honest, because it's a great place."

He added: "Miami is a city that has that pull on players who have been playing in Europe that are big stars."

As well Miami the city, Beckham also believes Inter Miami itself will be a big pull for the likes of Ronaldo and Messi.

He stopped short, however, of suggesting that Miami has had discussions with either of the men.

Inter Miami already has a number of stars who formerly lit up European leagues on its roster, including both Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi, while it is also home to some of the MLS' most promising young stars, such as 19-year-old winger Matias Pellegrini.

"I feel like we've got a great fan base, but I also understand there's great talent in Miami and South Florida, and I think we have a real opportunity," he said.

On top of its impressive roster, Miami appointed Beckham's former Manchester United and England teammate Phil Neville as its new head coach in January.

As a manager, Neville previously guided the England women's national team to victory at the 2019 SheBelieves Cup.

"[Neville] is the kind of coach that will get the best out of the players. He won't just work with the [Designated Players], he works with the young kids that have come through the academies," said Beckham.

"His experience being a part of one of the best academies in the game at Manchester United when we were growing up, working with different coaches.

"He was David Moyes' assistant at Manchester United, he was an assistant coach at Valencia, and then obviously he went on to be the coach of the England women's national team, which was a great experience, but also challenging at times."

Inter Miami, which was founded in 2018, kicks off its second season in the MLS on April 18 when it faces the Los Angeles Galaxy.
