Neymar Jr‘s visit to Miami has been quite eventful, to say the least. Surprisingly, he has not yet had the chance to meet up with his close friend Lionel Messi, despite both being in the same city. However, the imminent Inter Miami and New York City football match could potentially facilitate this encounter. Also, a recent interaction with David Beckham certainly lends credibility to these speculations.

Reflecting on the Brazilian star’s dynamic itinerary while in Miami – he attended the victorious game by Carlos Alcaraz against Gael Monfils and the Miami Heat and Golden State Warriors match. Moreover, he also delivered the first pitch for Miami Merlin’s season-opening game. Now the next major event on Neymar’s agenda likely appears to be the Inter Miami match.

Neymar’s surprise meeting raises speculations

In the midst of his dynamic sports engagements, Neymar found some time for leisurely excursions too. It was during one such outing on a Wednesday evening that he crossed paths with David and Victoria Beckham. This unexpected encounter transpired at Gekko, a renowned Miami restaurant owned by David Grutman. Grutman commemorated the occasion by sharing an image of himself, the Al Hilal forward, and the Inter Miami owner via social media.


Subsequently, Neymar also publicized a photograph featuring him alongside the Beckhams on his Instagram stories. As it stands, anticipation builds as many ponder over the 32-year-old potentially gracing the forthcoming Inter Miami vs New York City match as an observer. The unexpected rendezvous just before such a pivotal event suggests a strong possibility of the ex-PSG star gracing the stands during the upcoming game.

Moreover, given his former teammate’s presence at the MLS side- Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets, the possibility seems even more likely. Another possibility that is becoming increasingly probable with each passing day is Neymar potentially signing with The Herons.

Could the former Barca teammates reunite?

Speculations surrounding Neymar’s move to Inter Miami have been in circulation for quite some time now. These rumors only intensified as the Brazilian himself did little to extinguish this speculation fire. Earlier in this month, he openly expressed his hopes of reuniting on-field with the Argentine. He stated fervently, “Messi and I playing together again? I hope so, I hope we can play together again.”

As it stands now, Neymar remains contractually tied up until 2025 with Al Hilal. It promises an intriguing wait-and-see situation if there transpires any unexpected development in these circumstances. What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments.
