Lionel Messi's transfer to Inter Miami could reportedly ruin Luton Town's swoop for £10m-rated Venezuelan striker Josef Martinez.

Luton Town are reportedly interested in signing Martinez from Inter Miami, but the arrival of Messi could now put a stop to the deal.

Martinez is a prolific goalscorer, having scored 175 goals in 260 appearances for  former club Atlanta United and 6 goals in 19 appearances for Inter Miami. He would have been a major signing for Luton Town, who are looking to build on their recent promotion to the Premier League.

However, Inter Miami are keen to keep Martinez playing alongside Messi. This could be too tempting for Martinez, who would be able to achieve his dream of playing alongside one of the greatest players of all time.

If Martinez decides to stay with Inter Miami, it would be a major blow for Luton Town. They would have to find another striker, and it would be difficult to get a player of Martinez's quality.

It remains to be seen whether Martinez will stay at Inter Miami, but his potential move could have a major impact on Luton Town's plans for the upcoming season.

In addition to the potential impact on Luton Town, Messi's move to Inter Miami could also have a wider impact on the MLS.

The arrival of Messi is sure to attract a lot of attention to the MLS, and it could help to raise the profile of the league around the world. This could lead to more top players signing for MLS clubs in the future.

It will be interesting to see how Messi's move to Inter Miami affects the MLS in the long term. However, there is no doubt that it is a major coup for the league, and it could help to make the MLS one of the most popular leagues in the world.
