Inter Miami may be forced to sell players over the next week in order to comply with MLS regulations.

According to The Athletic, the Herons urgently need to secure more money and/or reduce salary spending to comply with MLS roster rules. Key players like Gregore, Jean Mota, DeAndre Yedlin, Robert Taylor and Sergii Kryvstov are reportedly available for transfer or trade as Inter Miami looks to make the necessary moves to meet MLS roster requirements. Additionally, the club is expected to part ways with Coco Jean, potentially through a transfer, trade or contract termination.

Although MLS has not yet announced squad-specific rules and regulations for the 2024 season, it is known that in 2023, the salary budget for the senior squad was a base of $5.21 million. Designated Players (DP) have a different impact on the salary cap, with a fixed maximum budget charge. Allocation funds play a crucial role in managing player contracts and salary expenses.

Inter Miami spent too much

The exact amount of allocation Inter Miami needs has not been revealed, and it is unclear how much the club has set aside in previous years or borrowed for the future.

A senior official told The Athletic: “They’re screwed. Believe me. Inter Miami made some notable offseason signings, including legendary striker Luis Suarez, Julian Gressel, Nicolas Freire, on loan from the Pumas, and highly-rated young Argentine international midfielder Federico Redondo. . However, the club has also made moves to generate money, such as trading Kamal Miller to Portland and Chris McVey to DC United, as well as moving Nicolas Stefanelli overseas. »
