Miami, August 13: Major League Soccer club Inter Miami CF on Thursday confirmed the signing of French midfielder Blaise Matuidi following his departure from Juventus.

The midfielder joins Inter Miami after leading Juventus FC to the 2019/20 Serie A title and will bring championship-winning experience and a well-rounded skill set to the team's midfield.

Matuidi is a four-time Ligue 1 and three-time Serie A champion. He is also a three-time Coupe de France, four-time Coupe de la Ligue and one-time Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana champion.

The Toulouse-born midfielder appeared at the 2016 UEFA EURO, as well as at the 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cups.
