Javier Mascherano has been handed a massive boost ahead of his first season in charge at Inter Miami with the club’s latest transfer agreement.
It has been revealed by journalist Fabrizio Romano that the Herons have agreed on a deal to sign midfielder Telasco Segovia from Casa Pia.
Inter Miami has only signed Fafa Picault so far this offseason but has seen a whole host of stars leave the club.
Diego Gomez joined Brighton and Hove Albion while the Herons sold Leo Campana to the New England Revolution for a record deal.
Casa Pia midfielder Telasco Segovia agrees permanent move
Inter Miami have been screaming out for some midfield reinforcements following a host of exits this summer.
Matias Rojas became the latest star to leave the Herons, and it was safe to say that fans were not happy about it.
However, the news of Segovia’s arrival will be a boost for fans ahead of a tough MLS season. Inter Miami face New York City FC.
Segovia will join on a permanent deal for $2.5m plus a 50% sell-on clause and add-ons also as part of the package, according to Romano.
The sum is a record transfer for Casa Pia, and Romano has revealed the deal is at the famous ‘Here we go’ stage.
Lionel Messi will certainly look forward to playing with the star who is known for his creativity.

Segovia perfect Gomez replacement
Following the absence of Gomez Inter Miami has been seeking a new midfield addition.
While the club still possesses the undoubted quality of former Barcelona star Sergio Busquets he needs a young, willing runner, to play alongside him.
Segovia looks like the perfect person to fit the role as he can play several roles within the center of midfield.
The 21-year-old already has eight first-team international caps for his country Venezuela and should be able to add quality to the Herons side on the attacking and defensive end.
He is known for his brilliant passing ability and endless energy. He will need to hit the ground running as he has some big boots to fill in the absence of Gomez.
