    The Athletic has a good rundown of how the deal came about (paywall).

    • Closer to home (Argentina)
    • In a city he knows and has a home in
    • Media coverage and fans will be essentially universally fawning, compared to the pressure cooker of Europe
    • Will extend his brand to America in a massive way, positioning him to have access to the market (ads, involvement in soccer franchises, etc) for his post retirement career
    • 50-60M in salary, way below what others were offering, but also getting paydays from Adidas and Apple for undisclosed amounts
    • equity in Inter Miami as a club

    • not in Saudi Arabia
