Inter Miami's Mas Says Club Followed Rules in Casemiro Signing Amid MLS Investigation

On Thursday, Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas introduced 34-year midfielder Casemiro as Major League Soccer investigates whether the club engaged in tampering to secure the signing.
Discovery rights held by the LA Galaxy originally prevented Inter Miami from negotiating with Casemiro. The clubs reached a settlement allowing the deal, though the league continues probing the tampering allegation.
Casemiro debuted for Inter Miami last Saturday, recording 76 touches in a 1-0 win at Montreal. He previously joined Manchester United from Real Madrid for $60 million in 2022.
Defending the acquisition, Jorge Mas stated, "We entered into no negotiation or conversations with Casemiro." He added that discovery rights ambiguity adds difficulty and hopes MLS changes the rule.
Strategic recruitment of stars like Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, and Lionel Messi drives Inter Miami's goal of becoming a global club. Casemiro aligns with this philosophy, complementing players who arrived after Messi's 2023 signing.
