Reports: Inter Miami Nears $15 Million Deal for Monterrey Striker Germán Berterame

The proposed move would occupy Miami’s final Designated Player slot, positioning a proven scorer for a Concacaf push pending official confirmation.

Overview

  • Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas confirmed an offer for Berterame, and Monterrey sporting director José Antonio Noriega acknowledged an approach with a proposal viewed as interesting.
  • Mexican transfer reporter César Luis Merlo says Monterrey accepted a $15 million bid and a verbal agreement is expected to be finalized in the coming days, though neither club has announced a done deal.
  • World Soccer Talk reports the fee would be the largest sale in Monterrey’s history, with Monterrey holding 70% of Berterame’s rights, Atlético Madrid 20%, and Atlético San Luis 10%.
  • Forbes notes the contract would require Miami’s remaining Designated Player slot, with the club valuing Berterame’s reliability and strong record in international competitions.
