New Inter Miami signing Sergio Busquets has suggested that his visit to Inter Miami Football Club last summer with Barcelona played a part in his decision to join the American club.

Busquet was officially unveiled as an Inter Miami player on Monday.

The veteran midfielder joined Inter Miami on a free transfer after running down his contract with Barcelona last month.

Speaking to Inter Miami’s media team for the first time, Busquets said: “This is a special and exciting opportunity that I am very excited to take.

“I was impressed by the Club when I came with Barcelona last year, and now I am happy and ready to represent the Club myself.”

Busquets’s move to Miami sees him reunite with his former Barcelona teammate, Lionel Messi.
