A former Real Madrid player has decided to join David Beckham-owned MLS side Inter Miami and is all set to play alongside Lionel Messi.

Real Madrid have already started preparations for the new season under Jose Mourinho, as they look to recover from the woes of the past two campaigns.

Los Blancos are also very much active in the ongoing summer transfer window. The early signings of Ibrahima Konate, Marc Cucurella, Bernardo Silva and Denzel Dumfries speak volumes about their positive intent.

Now with the World Cup over, the Whites are eager to add a few more stars to their squad before the transfer window closes, but they have also focused on making space for the new additions ever since the end of the previous campaign.

The first to depart were Dani Carvajal and David Alaba, as the former became the last member of the historic Champions League three-peat winning side to leave the Santiago Bernabeu.

Carvajal is yet to join a new club since his departure, but as it seems, one of his former teammates at Real Madrid, Casemiro, has already decided his destination for the new season.

The former Los Blancos hero confirmed on his X account that he will be joining Major League Soccer side Inter Miami for the new season.

Casemiro's current contract also has an option to extend till 2029, as the Brazilian looks forward to playing alongside Lionel Messi in Miami.

David Beckham also welcomed Casemiro to his club through a social media post, as he certainly looks just like every other fan, to see both Messi and Casemiro combine with each other next season.

Casemiro played a crucial role for Los Blancos during his time at the Spanish capital, alongside his midfield partners Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.

While Kroos has retired from professional football, Modric went on to join AC Milan, and this time around, it could well turn out to be the Croatian international's final season.

As for the Brazilian, he joined Premier League side Manchester United in search of a new challenge, as he seemingly got tired of winning with the Whites.

Casemiro also played a pivotal role for the Reds, arguably during one of the most difficult periods in their recent history.

The 34-year-old already confirmed his departure from Old Trafford midway through last season as he said his goodbyes to the fans with United securing a third-place finish in the Premier League along with Champions League qualification.

Apart from Messi, Casemiro will also be working with another former Real Madrid star, Gonzalo Higuain, who is currently Inter Miami's player development coach.

As the former Los Blancos hero starts a new journey in his career, and most probably his final as a player, we wish him good luck from Real Madrid Roundtable.
