Now that it is officially official and one of soccer’s biggest stars is joining OUR Inter Miami team, we have prepared a few facts before anyone can ask “Por qué  Miami?”

Just in case you didn’t know, David Beckham is one of the owners of the team. Jorge and Jose Mas are also part of the ownership team.

Yes, ‘Posh’ Spice’s husband is going to be paying Lionel Messi’s paycheck and it’s only fair given that when David Beckham joined the MLS in 2007, he had a special clause inserted in his contract that allowed him to purchase an expansion team when he retired for a cool $25 million.
