Inter Miami goalkeeper Nick Marsman had seen his contract terminated less than two months after he claimed the club “is not ready for [Lionel] Messi’s arrival.”
The 32-year-old Dutch goalkeeper joined Inter Miami from Feyenoord in 2021, but has now had his contract terminated by the MLS team following his comments to ESPN Netherlands ahead of Messi’s signing.
Back in June, Marsman stated that he didn’t believe Inter Miami were ready to facilitate the arrival of Messi, one of the world’s best ever players. He told ESPN: “I personally think that this club is not ready for Messi’s arrival,” Marsman told ESPN. “We have a temporary stadium, people can just walk on the pitch, there are no gates.
‘I personally think that this club is not ready for Messi’s arrival,’ Marsman told ESPN. ‘We have a temporary stadium, people can just walk on the pitch, there are no gates.
‘We also leave for the stadium without security. I think they aren’t ready. But I hope he comes.’
