The 30-year-old World Cup winner will move to Major League Soccer in a transfer worth approximately €15 million to Atlético Madrid. The deal is a permanent move for De Paul, who will sign a four-year contract with Inter Miami, running through the 2028 season. This transfer fee makes De Paul one of the most expensive signings in MLS history and shows Inter Miami’s continued ambition to compete at the highest level.

Reunion with Lionel Messi

The transfer brings De Paul together with his Argentina national team captain and close friend Lionel Messi at Inter Miami. The two players have shared incredible success with the national team, winning the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as well as consecutive Copa América titles in 2021 and 2024. Their partnership on the field has been instrumental in Argentina’s recent golden period, and now they will have the opportunity to recreate that magic in MLS.

Departure from Atlético Madrid

De Paul’s time at Atlético Madrid comes to an end after nearly four years in the Spanish capital. He moved to the Spanish capital in July 2021 from Serie A side Udinese in a €35

million deal and has made 187 appearances in that period, scoring 14 goals for the club. His departure marks the end of a challenging period where he struggled to consistently nail down a regular starting position under Diego Simeone.

De Paul brings invaluable experience and proven quality to Inter Miami’s squad. De Paul was part of the Argentina side who won the 2022 World Cup as well as the Copa América in 2021 and 2024. His international success and big-game experience will be crucial for Miami’s continued development as they look to establish themselves as a dominant force in American soccer.

MLS Championship Ambitions

Rodrigo will fulfill his dream of sharing a club with his great friend Lionel Messi and Inter Miami emerges as a strong candidate to take the MLS this year. The addition of De Paul to an already star-studded roster that includes Messi, Luis Suárez, and Jordi Alba makes Inter Miami the clear favorites for MLS Cup success in 2025.

This signing is another masterpiece of recruitment by Inter Miami’s management team. The club has consistently targeted players who not only bring individual quality but also have existing chemistry with their star players. De Paul’s familiarity with Messi’s playing style and their proven partnership for Argentina makes this a low-risk, high-reward addition to the squad.

The four-year contract shows Inter Miami’s long-term commitment to De Paul and their belief in his ability to contribute at the highest level well into his thirties. At 30 years old, De Paul still has several productive years ahead of him and will serve as a mentor to younger players while providing consistent quality in the middle of the park.

His arrival also sends a clear message to other world-class players that Inter Miami remains an attractive destination for top talent. The combination of competitive ambition, excellent facilities, and the opportunity to play alongside legends like Messi continues to draw elite players to MLS.

While the verbal agreement is in place and all parties have reached terms, the official announcement and unveiling will follow once all paperwork and formalities are completed.
