TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS:<\/strong> Signing<\/em><\/p>\n Inter Miami CF<\/a> have fully acquired forward Tadeo Allende<\/a> from LaLiga side Celta de Vigo, the club announced Monday.<\/p>\n The 26-year-old Argentine spent last season on loan with Miami from Celta, helping them win MLS Cup 2025<\/a> presented by Audi.<\/p>\n With his new deal, Allende is under contract through June 2030 with an option through June 2031.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Allende was Miami’s second-leading scorer last year (all competitions), contributing 24 goals in 54 matches. He tallied a record nine goals<\/a> in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs, including the result-sealing goal as Miami beat Vancouver Whitecaps FC<\/a> for their first league title.\u00a0<\/p>\n Allende, who added three assists for Miami in 2025, impressed alongside Lionel Messi<\/a> and Mateo Silvetti<\/a>. The Argentines formed a dangerous front three, with Messi central, Silvetti on the left and Allende on the right.<\/p>\n Before joining Miami last year, Allende rose to prominence at Argentine side Godoy Cruz.
