Benja Cremaschi: Inter Miami’s Next Global Star

From Local Rugby to MLS Revelation

Benjamin “Benja” Cremaschi was once juggling rugby and recreational soccer in South Florida’s parks. Fast-forward to 2024, and the 20-year-old midfielder is one of Major League Soccer’s most talked-about prospects, thanks to an explosive debut season with Inter Miami.

Learning Beside Legends

Daily training sessions with icons Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez and Sergio Busquets have turbo-charged his development. Cremaschi credits the trio’s professionalism for his rapid rise: meticulous recovery routines, extra technical drills and relentless competitive intensity have become his new normal. The result is a box-to-box engine that combines Argentine flair with American athleticism.

USMNT Breakthrough

In January, U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter handed Cremaschi his senior debut, impressed by the youngster’s vision and fearless ball progression. A starring role at this summer’s Olympic Games now looks inevitable, cementing his status as a cornerstone of the next USMNT cycle.

Europe Circling

A fresh long-term Inter Miami contract has not cooled overseas interest. Scouts from Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus filed glowing reports after his commanding display versus FC Porto in the FIFA Club World Cup. Inter’s valuation is already north of $20 million, yet insiders believe a record MLS fee may still be required to prise him away in 2025.

What’s Next?

With the 2024 MLS season underway and Miami eyeing silverware, Cremaschi’s immediate focus is domestic dominance. Behind the scenes, though, European powerhouses are plotting their move for a midfielder who blends composure, creativity and a relentless motor.

Opinion: If Inter Miami can keep Cremaschi beyond next summer, they’ll have pulled off a bigger coup than landing Messi—because the kid’s ceiling could reshape both MLS prestige and the USMNT midfield for a decade.
