If at Inter Miami the situation does not work on the court, it seems that in the superior offices neither. Since day one, the most important faces of this project have been those of Jorge Mas and David Beckham, however, they are not the only ones with property in the club. Unfortunately, that group looks on its way to disband.
In new information obtained by The Athletic, Sam Stejskal and Paul Tenorio have reported that co-owners Marcelo Claure and Masayoshi Son, who work together at SoftBank, are planning to sell their shares.. This has arisen mainly because Claure, despite being registered as president, has not been involved in various decision-making and it seems that his relationship with Jorge Mas is heading towards a safe break.
More is the one who is most active in the day-to-day life of the club and more because he is within the board of directors, however, that does not merit the exclusion of other owners in internal matters and that looks like the most serious after Claure would have finally found the investment group he wanted in 2017. In fact, right now, the tension has not reached such a high level that the same sources of The Athletic They point out that Mas would buy the shares of the two men mentioned.
Claure trusted from day one on the investments of the Mas brothers due to the influences they have in the city, but They have also disappointed by still waiting for the new stadium, which their first location was a failure, and also by direct sanctions that were done to Jorge in the controversial hiring of Blaise Matuidi. Apparently they could not with him, they could not join him and then more power will have to be given to him.
How is Inter Miami this season?
A year ago, it is true, Inter Miami was not the best team, but they did fight and entered with a ticket to the postseason. Today, that looks more than out of reach. In 11 games played so far in the 2021 season, those led by Phil Neville have won a couple of games, but have also lost seven, which has them one step from the basement of the East with 8 points, the same as Toronto FC.
