Inter Miami continues to show that they want to replicate the achievements of 2025 and know that in order to do so it is essential to have a vast squad and strengthen the defensive line, the weak point of the Herons. That is why the club confirmed the arrival of Facundo Mura, a 26-year-old right back who arrives on a free transfer from Racing Club.
Inter Miami confirms its first signing of the year
Inter Miami has officially announced the arrival of Facundo Mura as one of its signings for the 2026 season. The defender signed a contract until June 2029, in what will be his first professional experience outside of Argentina.
Mura arrives to take the place left vacant by Marcelo Weigandt, who returned to Boca Juniors after two seasons with the club. The board opted for a proven full-back, with speed and good attacking ability.
I’m very happy to join the club, I’m looking forward to working and I’m excited to keep winning titles. I hope to see you soon to enjoy this new year. Let’s go Inter!
The numbers behind Facundo Mura’s move to Miami
During his time at Racing, Facundo Mura won four titles and played 148 official matches, in which he contributed 12 goals and 15 assists. These figures confirm his offensive projection and consistency, two key factors for a modern full-back.
Mura not only had the option of continuing in Argentine soccer, but was also followed by clubs such as River Plate. However, the possibility of playing in MLS as a starter, and above all the chance to play alongside Lionel Messi was decisive in accepting Inter Miami’s offer.
Inter Miami possible signings
With the arrival of Mura and Sergio Reguilon, the full-backs seem to be covered, however, in Miami they would also be close to completing the arrival of Micael, a 25-year-old Brazilian central defender who would arrive from Palmeiras to finish strengthening the defensive sector of the Herons
Negotiations are progressing towards a loan with an option to buy, a formula that would allow the club to evaluate his adaptation. Palmeiras is looking to recoup some of the investment of around $6 million it made when it acquired him from Houston Dynamo
In Miami, they are also looking for the profile of a midfielder who can provide balance to the team and replace Sergio Busquets. The main candidate is Giovani Lo Celso, however, negotiations with Real Betis seem to be on hold.
