MLS side Inter Miami will "push" to sign Lionel Messi in the near future.

That is according to the club's co-owner Jorge Mas, who has a controlling stake in the club that is also owned by England and Manchester United legend David Beckham.

Mas suggested that considering Beckham's good relationship with Paris Saint-Germain, a deal may be possible down the road.

According to Goal.com, Mas said: "Leo Messi is still one of the best players in the world, his skills have not diminished.

"I think, and David has a relationship with him, if he does leave PSG, at the time he leaves it, we'd love to see Lionel Messi be a player at Inter Miami and be part of our community.

"Can it happen? Look, we'll push. I'm an optimist at heart. Could I see that happening? It's a possibility."
