Martino is a decorated figure in the soccer sphere. He brings a wealth of experience and success to the team. The Argentine manager has an impressive track record and will assume coaching responsibilities to lead the team with Messi on the pitch.

“We are very happy to be able to welcome Tata to Inter Miami. We feel he is a coach who matches our ambitions as a club, and we’re optimistic about what we can accomplish together.”
Co-Owner David Beckham also praised Martino, recognizing his achievements and experience as a head coach.
“Tata is a highly respected figure in our sport whose track record speaks for itself,” said Beckham.
Chris Henderson, Chief Soccer Officer, and Sporting Director, expressed confidence in Martino to succeed in Major League Soccer (MLS) with Inter Miami because of the various high-profile competitions he was involved in and his understanding of what it takes to win in MLS.
The career of the new manager spans over 400 games and coaching in prestigious tournaments worldwide. He has managed two FIFA World Cups, reached three finals in the Conmebol Copa América, and won the 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup with the Mexican national team.
Martino has coached in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League while at FC Barcelona and the Conmebol Copa Libertadores.
His trophy cabinet boasts the 2018 MLS Cup, the 2013 Supercopa de España, the 2013 Argentine First Division Torneo Final championship, and four Paraguayan First Division titles.
Martino managed Atlanta United in 2018, leading the club to an MLS Cup victory. During his tenure there, he worked with Inter Miami forward Josef Martínez, who set a scoring record in the 2018 MLS regular season.
Martino is thrilled to join Inter Miami CF, a prominent club with the necessary infrastructure to compete at the highest level. He believes his new team can achieve great things together with hard work.
With the team on a downward slope, defeated seven times in a row in the MLS, Tata looks forward to climbing back up.
