Monterrey is already looking for a replacement for Berterame, who would move to Inter Miami
The Monterrey board confirmed negotiations with Inter Miami for German Berterame to play alongside Lionel Messi
German Berterame, the Argentine-born Mexican striker, may have scored his last goal in the final 67 minutes of his time in Liga MX in the 5-1 victory against Mazatlan, after the Monterrey board negotiations confirmed for the striker to play with Inter Miami.
It was precisely the sporting president of the Monterrey team, Jose Antonio Noriega, who confirmed to the media the negotiations with Major League Soccer (MLS) for Berterame to leave the Mexican team and become a new player for the Florida Herons.
Noriega confirmed the approaches from the reigning American soccer champions, with an interesting offer for both the club and the player, but he was candid about the complicated timing, as the Clausura 2026 tournament has already begun, which would complicate things for finalizing the deal.
“I can confirm that there has been an approach and a proposal that is interesting to Berterame, which could become interesting for us, but we are analyzing it because it comes at a very inopportune moment, because we are competing, because there isn't much time to react, we are analyzing it as it is attractive to Berterame,” said the Rayados executive.
People close to The negotiations, it is claimed, involve Inter Miami offering a figure close to $15 million, and the presence of Lionel Messi would surely make the decision easier for German Berterame, as he would be playing alongside his compatriot. It should be noted that German was born in Villa Maria, Argentina, but is now a naturalized Mexican citizen and aims for the 2026 World Cup with the Mexican National Team, but he has always publicly expressed his admiration for the current star of the Argentine national team and Inter Miami. Regarding the negotiations for German Berterame, and with Monterrey analyzing Inter Miami's offer, executive Jose Antonio Noriega stated that they are seeking what is best for both the player and the team. Therefore, if the terms of the agreement move forward, they will begin the search for a replacement for the Mexican national team. "If we decide the offer is interesting and that German leaves,we will do everything possible. We are already working to replace him," added Jose Antonio. Finally, Jorge Mas, president of the Miami team, told the press: "German Berterame is a great player, we aspire to have a great roster, there is an offer from Inter Miami for him, we will see how that develops in the next 24 or 36 hours."
