The Tadeo Allende transfer saga hints at news Inter Miami fans feared all along | OneFootball

Tadeo Allende’s record-breaking playoffs have left Inter Miami facing a fight to keep him after lifting the MLS Cup. The 26-year-old became the first player in MLS history to score nine goals in the postseason.

According to TyC Sports, Celta Vigo have set a 10 million dollar price for Allende.

Sporting director Marco Garcés said Miami had expressed interest and made an approach. He added the clubs remain far apart on valuation and that Allende was due to report on 2 January.

A 10 million dollar fee would place him in Designated Player territory, and Miami are keen to avoid that as they look to use their third DP slot this winter on a higher-profile addition.

The lure of a new stadium and entering 2026 as defending champions could aid negotiations. If Allende wants to stay, that might help drive down any fee. For now, Miami’s off-season moves point to protecting their winning culture, which may yet include keeping the winger.
