U.S. soccer legend Alexi Lalas tells TMZ Sports after adding Lionel Messi, the team is already being linked to other international superstars, and he could see Inter Miami becoming a 'super club Death Star!'
"We're already seeing incredible names now being linked to coming to Inter Miami," Lalas said."It's almost as if they're in the process of potentially creating this MLS super club Death Star, and the hate-watching is going to be absolutely epic!"
Lalas said if it does, indeed, take that turn ... he's anticipating it to create some serious rivalries in the U.S. league -- which would be a big boon for fans here in the States. "I know if I was on another team -- a less sexy team, for example -- and Miami was doing all of this," he said,"and one of the greatest to ever play is there, I would want to kick his ass."
