Inter Miami Coach Mascherano Dismisses Rumors of Neymar Reunion with Messi and Suárez

Javier Mascherano cites MLS salary cap rules as a major obstacle to signing Neymar, despite speculation fueled by the player's recent comments.

Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano stated it is 'impossible' to bring Neymar to the team due to Major League Soccer's strict salary cap rules.
Speculation about a reunion of Neymar, Lionel Messi, and Luis Suárez at Inter Miami was fueled by Neymar's comments about wanting to play with his former Barcelona teammates again.
Neymar, currently under contract with Saudi club Al Hilal, has struggled with injuries, playing only seven matches since joining the team in 2023.
Mascherano, who took over as Miami's coach in November, emphasized the need to focus on realistic squad-building goals, including strengthening the team's defense.
Luis Suárez acknowledged the appeal of Neymar joining but described the possibility as 'difficult and complicated,' given the logistical and financial challenges.
