Javier Mascherano departs Lionel Messis Inter Miami following remarkable campaign

The Argentine manager announced his choice through a formal declaration, expressing appreciation to the team, squad, and supporters for his period in charge.

I wish to inform that, due to private matters, I have chosen to conclude my role as manager of Inter Miami. Above all, I appreciate the teams confidence, the entire groups combined work, but most notably the squad, who created lasting highlights, he stated.

I express my gratitude to the supporters and the teams community, for without their backing none of these achievements could have occurred. I shall forever treasure the recollection of our inaugural title, and no matter where I head next, I will always hope for their continued success.

The teams leadership replied promptly, with Jorge Mas emphasising Mascheranos influence.

Javier remains a permanent figure in the teams legacy. This includes not only the titles secured, such as the MLS Cup, or our progress in the FIFA Club World Cup, but also the daily model he provided via his commitment and effort. We honour his choice and appreciate all he contributed.

During the 2025 campaign, his debut as leader, Mascherano delivered impressive outcomes, claiming two key prizes, among them the teams initial MLS Cup victory, and establishing a benchmark with 101 goals netted in one year.
