INTER MIAMI may have to start planning to see how Lionel Messi would fit into the team after receiving a major boost in their attempts to sign him.
The Argentine World Cup winner is increasingly unsure about extending his time with PSG, according to the French publication L’Equipe.

How Inter Miami could line up with Messi in the squad
This could lead to a shock move to the MLS outfit, who have been heavily linked with the former Barcelona ace over the past year.
L’Equipe have suggested that Messi’s family would be open to living in the United States, with the 35-year-old owning a home in Miami where he holidays regularly.
If Messi was to join David Beckham‘s American outfit, he would join several famous stars.
The Barcelona legend could be set for a reunion with Spanish central midfielder Sergio Busquets as he is thought to be interested in a move to the MLS outfit.
Former Arsenal left-back Kieran Gibbs, 33, is already at the club after moving to the US last year.
Messi could also line up behind MLS star Josef Martinez, who joined the club in January after a successful spell with Atlanta.
And alongside of him could come Beckham’s son Romeo – who could return to Miami after his loan spell at Brentford B runs out.

The Englishman netted his first goal for the Bees this week and could be prepared for a more senior role at Miami.
United States international and former Newcastle defender DeAndre Yedlin could take up the starting berth at right back.
The team is currently coached by former Manchester United and Everton defender Phil Neville.
