"When I came to America and the MLS 20 years ago, my dream was to win championships, help raise the game of soccer that I love so much and to build my own team. Thirteen years ago, I announced Miami was my choice. We had no name. We had no fans. We had no stadium. Today, I stand in our new home."
"We are champions of the MLS. We have the best player in the history of the game playing in Miami. Dreams really can come true."
"Following Messi's arrival in 2023, Miami won the Supporters' Shield in 2024 and claimed their first MLS title in 2025, with the Argentine winning the league's MVP award in both seasons."
David Beckham expressed his joy as Inter Miami played its inaugural match at Nu Stadium, resulting in a 2-2 draw with Austin FC. Beckham, a co-owner and founder of the club, reflected on his journey from announcing Miami as his choice 13 years ago to witnessing the team's success, including winning the MLS title and hosting Lionel Messi. The club has attracted notable players and has transitioned from playing in Fort Lauderdale to its new home, fulfilling Beckham's long-held dream of building a successful soccer team in Miami.
