"The MLS Cup and MLS Coach of the Year
award-winning coach, with experience with the Argentina and
Mexico national teams, Barcelona and more, joins the club while
awaiting his employment paperwork," the club said.
Managing owner Jorge Mas added: "We feel he is a coach who
matches our ambitions and we're optimistic about what we can
accomplish together. Tata has coached at the highest levels and
we believe that experience will be hugely beneficial to us."
Martino returns to coaching after stepping down as Mexico coach
following last year's World Cup, where the country were
eliminated in the group stage for the first time since 1978.
He was previously at the helm of Atlanta United for the club's
first two years in the league, enjoying a successful stint
winning the MLS Cup in 2018.
"Tata is a highly respected figure in our sport whose track
record speaks for itself," said Inter Miami co-owner David
Beckham.
"We are confident that his accomplishments and experience as a
coach will serve as an inspiration to our team and excite the
fans, and we are excited to see the impact he will have on and
off the field."
