David Beckham rips up Inter Miami star’s contract just weeks after damning verdict on Lionel Messi signing

INTER MIAMI have terminated Nick Marsman’s contract after his doubtful comments on the arrival of Messi.

The decision comes just weeks after he told ESPN the club is “not ready” for Lionel Messi.

Earlier this summer he said: “I personally think that this club is not ready for Messi’s arrival.

“We have a temporary stadium, people can just walk on the pitch, there are no gates.

“We also leave for the stadium without security. I think they aren’t ready.”

However his time at the club has ended with the decision to terminate and buy him out of his contract.

The MLS allows each club to tear up one contract during the season – and Inter Miami owner David Beckham has taken advantage of this rule on Marsman.

Inter Miami released a statement announcing the decision – making him a free agent on the market.

He made a total of 29 appearances in the 21/22 season but since Drake Callender’s arrival he didn’t feature at all last season.

Marsman was hospitalised earlier this season after being bitten by a poisonous spider at a zoo in Miami.

His wife took to Instagram to share his recovery was going well after being in hospital for three days.

Messi made an instant impact on the East Coast with seven goals in four appearances.

His arrival to Inter Miami attracted the likes of Lebron James, Kim Kardashian and Serena Williams to his debut game.

Inter Miami currently sit bottom of the MLS table taking just 18 points from 22 games.

With 10 games remaining David Beckham’s East Coast club will hope Messi’s impact can bump them up the table.
