David Beckham‘s Inter Miami have admitted they have held talks about a shock move to bring striker Edinson Cavani to Major League Soccer.
Cavani has sparked a scramble for his signature throughout the January window with Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Manchester United all keen to bring him in from Paris Saint-Germain, where he has fallen down the pecking order.
He is rated at £25m by the French champions, even though he is 32 and heading into the final six months of his contract.

Inter Miami joint owner Jorge Mas was quoted by Sky Sports News as saying: ‘We have had conversations about Cavani, but I don’t want to make any comments further than that based on that he is a PSG player at the time.
‘We have two of our designated spots open so we’ll see where this ends up. A lot of it depends on the window closing on Friday so we’ll see what happens.
‘We’ll have a great roster irrespective of our top five choices or not. We’ll be bringing a great team to the south of Florida.’
Inter Miami’s first MLS match is against Los Angeles FC on March 1.
