The talkSPORT verdict<\/h2>\n<p>The prospect of uniting Ronaldo and Messi at Inter Miami may have only lasted briefly, but this didn\u2019t stop plenty of discussion over how the dream scenario could play out.<\/p>\n<p>There was one huge obstacle to the potential move, with the MLS allowing three Designated Players (DP) per team.<\/p>\n<p>A DP allows a player to earn considerably more than the average MLS player \u2013 a rule brought in following\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/talksport.com\/topic\/david-beckham\/\">Beckham<\/a>\u2018s move to <span id=\"19e6bd2a-eb89-43ee-aa93-ec9b83e1ed2d\"

European football broadcaster Andy Brassell\u00a0discussed the logistics of a would-be move to the MLS alongside Messi.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to talkSPORT, Brassell said: \u201cIt\u2019s an interesting prospect, I\u2019ll believe it when I see it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow you get around the salary cap, even with DPs, it feels like a bit of a leap to get those guys in the same team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously, commercially it will be enormously exciting to a lot of people \u2013 I\u2019m not sure how it massively improves American soccer from anything other than a commercial perspective.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think really when <a href=\"https:\/\/talksport.com\/who\/mauricio-pochettino\/\">Mauricio Pochettino<\/a>\u2018s fighting really hard to try and make the US competitive at this <a href=\"https:\/\/talksport.com\/world-cup\/\">World Cup<\/a>, there\u2019s something a little bit sad in that. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor what it\u2019s worth, I don\u2019t think Ronaldo will leave Saudi. If he has to move clubs like Benzema, then so be it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Brassell raised question marks over Ronaldo\u2019s recent strike action, he admitted his motivation in the twilight stage of his career were admirable.<\/p>\n<p>He continued: \u201cI think even though it\u2019s incredibly childish behaviour from a 41-year-old, it\u2019s also interesting that someone like him is not totally sated by money.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinning stuff still matters enormously to him. Even if there\u2019s a huge part of the football world who thinks winning in Saudi doesn\u2019t mean anything \u2013 it doesn\u2019t mean anything at all. It really means a lot to <span id=\"eea5943f-506f-432e-9d9c-5b6308151f35\" class=\"suggested-link\">Cristiano Ronaldo<\/span>. He\u2019s still got that hope or heart of a competitor about him \u2013 it\u2019s something that\u2019s amazing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt this point in his career, he shouldn\u2019t really care, should he? He should just be sated by the money.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saudi Pro League officials believe Cristiano Ronaldo will end his strike and feature for Al Nassr on Saturday, talkSPORT understands. &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/talksport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/b43e736b-c43a-406b-ac07-ad47c7faa5fc.jpg?strip=all&w=960","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6656","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
