Inter Miami has not expressed interest in signing Colombian midfielder Juan Fernando Quintero, club sources confirmed to ESPN. There has been no contact or talks between the two parties despite ongoing reports linking Quintero to the MLS team. Quintero is currently a free agent after he and River Plate mutually agreed to terminate his contract on July 24.

He made 137 appearances for River Plate across all competitions. Inter Miami recently signed Casemiro as a free agent on a contract through the end of the 2027 MLS season with an extension option until June 2029. Casemiro was introduced to fans at Nu Stadium before his home debut on Saturday night.

Club co-owner Jorge Mas said that signing Casemiro reflects the level of players the club will continue to chase, setting a high bar for incoming transfers. Inter Miami also recently acquired Ecuadorian defender Fricio Caicedo on loan from FC Moravia FCM through the conclusion of the 2027 MLS Sprint Season.
