FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.: Inter Miami completed the signing of midfielder Federico Redondo to a four-year contract on Friday, with a club option for the 2028 season as well.
Redondo โ the son of Fernando Redondo, who played for Real Madrid, AC Milan and Argentinaโs national team โ is signing as a U22 Initiative player and as a season-ending injury replacement for Facundo Farias. Inter Miami lost Farias to a torn ACL in a preseason match last month.
โWeโre pleased to bring an exciting young midfielder like Federico to Inter Miami,โ team sporting director and chief soccer officer Chris Henderson said. โHeโs a very promising player who is sharp with the ball at his feet, and shows awareness out of possession. We believe in his potential, but also feel he will immediately be a strong addition to our squad as we look to build on our successes in 2024.โ
The 21-year-old Redondo comes to Inter Miami from Argentinos Juniors. He has represented Argentina at the under-20 and under-23 levels, and now gets to play with Argentina captain Lionel Messi.
โIโm very happy to join a club that is growing so much,โ Redondo said. โItโs a great opportunity to share the pitch with top players.โ
