Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham posted a photo at dinner with Neymar Friday morning, teasing a potential Lionel Messi reunion at South Beach.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The Brazil international is currently sidelined with an ACL injury he suffered in the Fall while on international duty with the Selecao, and as a result, he’s been spending his time away from the pitch with Al-Hilal traveling.
He was pictured spending an evening with David Beckham and his wife Victoria Thursday evening, with the Inter Miami co-owner sending fans into a frenzy on social media over a hypothetical reunion with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez at South beach.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
The Heron’s co-owner, however, cleared up the air with a post of his own on social media Friday morning, claiming the meeting was “only for dinner 😂” between the friends. However, the Englishman did opt to tag his MLS side in the post, leading to even more speculation online.
The Brazil star’s contract with Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal ends in 2025, yet he’s not expected to return to the pitch for club or country until the start of the 2024/25 season due to injury – missing out on this Summer’s Copa America.

WHAT NEXT FOR INTER MIAMI AND NEYMAR?
Beckham’s Herons take on Eastern Conference side NYCFC this weekend as they look to bounce back from a harrowing 4-0 defeat last week to New York Red Bulls. For the Al-Hilal star, it’s a continued spell of recovery and preparation for the next campaign while looking to return from his ACL injury.
