Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber has revealed they will try everything to help David Beckham's Inter Miami sign Lionel Messi.

The Argentine World Cup winner is set to become a free agent at the end of the season as things stand, but he seemingly won't be short of suitors.

Barcelona are said to be keen on re-signing their club legend, while MLS side Inter Miami have already confirmed their intensions to sign the 35-year-old.

The MLS commissioner has revealed they would help Miami in facilitating a move for the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner.

"I can tell you that we would love him in Major League Soccer," Garber told CBS Sports. 

"I think of him as someone who crosses so many barriers that he can be bigger than any athlete of any sport that has ever played here in the United States.

"We will work very hard with Miami, who is the team that is hoping to be able to sign him. We have been pretty effective at coming up with clever ways to sign players for our clubs in the right market."

"There are a lot of dynamics that are going on there. He's got a lot of things to think about in terms of where he wants to continue his career… It's very real-time and I hope that we're able to get in front of the discussion and hopefully bring something over the finish line."
