"The vision that the owners of Inter Miami, the Mas brothers, Jorge and Jose, and David Beckham, have really convinced me. They want to turn this club into a global football power," said Raul Sanllehi on the day of the launch.

"I would say, why not?", Mr. Raul Sanllehi replied when asked why he chose to move to MLS (USA). "I don't see any reason not to do this great project. I think this project will be great for many reasons, but basically, this is a project, so it is the result of thinking big," Mr. Raul Sanllehi shared.

According to The Athletic (UK): "Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas wants to change the club's management structure to develop to a new level. Therefore, he chose an experienced person with whom he had worked before, Mr. Raul Sanllehi, who is also the CEO of Real Zaragoza Club in Spain, a team also owned by Mr. Jorge Mas.

In the new management structure, David Beckham will still hold the role of club president and co-owner like the Mas brothers, Jorge and Jose, they will receive direct proposals from the two co-presidents of football and business activities, to make final decisions related to the development of the club".

Meanwhile, Mr. Jorge Mas revealed: "Inter Miami will have a revenue of more than 200 million USD in 2024. The club has tripled its profits since Messi arrived. Our new stadium will be completed by the end of 2025. Our idea now is for Messi to play his final season at the new stadium. But we always want him to stay with Inter Miami as long as possible. After Copa America, we will have new proposals for Messi."
