Inter Miami announced on Saturday that Mexican midfielder Rodolfo Pizarro will leave the club. The two sides agreed to a mutual contract termination, and Pizarro will now be a free agent.
Pizarro played 13 games with Miami this season but has failed to score a single goal and has only one assist to his name.
Pizarro’s underwhelming performances are not the only reason why he is leaving Inter. The club wrapped up the signing of Argentinean star Lionel Messi this week and needed a roster spot.
Rodolfo Pizarro joined Inter on a Designated Player contract in 2020 after stellar performances with Liga MX side Monterrey. He was expected to be one of the cornerstone players of Miami’s squad but failed to do much in MLS.
Pizzaro ended up playing 62 games with Inter in MLS, scoring seven goals and dishing 10 assists. He also spent parts of the previous two seasons on loan with Monterrey.
Reportedly, Pizzaro already has a new landing spot. He is set to sign with Greek club AEK Athens. The move will reunite him with manager Matías Almeyda. The two previously spent time together with Liga MX club Chivas.
