Lionel Messi is set to be reunited with his former Barcelona teammate Luis Suarez at Inter Miami, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed.
Messi and Suarez spent six seasons together at Barcelona, forming a deadly partnership alongside Neymar which haunted defences across Europe.
The trident won four La Liga titles, the Champions League and the Club World Cup during that time.
There were concerns over whether Inter Miami would be able to land the Uruguayan due to MLS rules which prevent teams from signing more than three players above the salary cap.

However, it would appear the Florida based club have found a way around the regulations, following reports that a one-year deal has been agreed.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the news on social media, tweeting: "Luís Suárez to Inter Miami, all set to be sealed and announced — here we go!
"Contract ready after verbal agreement reached one month ago — one-year deal for Suárez.
"Deal will also include an option for further season.
"Messi and Suárez, together again.
Suarez will also join up with former Barca teammates Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, as Miami owner David Beckham gets the band back together.
