David Beckham has reportedly sanctioned Romeo Beckham's permanent transfer away from Inter Miami, meaning he won't play with Lionel Messi.

The 20-year-old moved away from the Major League Soccer side in an attempt to get some game time under his belt.

He joined Premier League club Brentford in January from Inter Miami, who are owned by the former Manchester United legend.

The budding starlet scored his first goal for the club in February, bagging a dramatic 93rd minute winner.

He seems to have impressed staff at Brentford, who have agreed to sign him on a one-year deal.

The Bees will pay a nominal fee to seal his services from Inter Miami.

His father has allowed him to leave the Miami-based club, meaning Romeo won't have the chance to play with Messi.

The seven-time Ballon d'Or winner has decided to join the MLS team after opting to leave Paris Saint-Germain.

Romeo, meanwhile, garnered high praise from Brentford B boss Neil MacFarlane, who hailed the player's technical ability.

"We’ve been absolutely delighted with Romeo since he arrived with us," he told the club's website.

"He came to us from Inter Miami with the aim of working with us during their close season. Romeo has applied himself unbelievably well, he’s really bought into the culture and the group which he has become a big part of.

"I love his standards and the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch."

MacFarlane added: "He’s been able to get fitter and fitter during his time with us and it leaves him in a good place to now step forward having joined us on loan.

"He is very technical, and he is somebody who can shift the ball quickly and cross.

"He is also a really good finisher and he has the ability to play a number of positions for us, which is also pleasing.

"I think it’s testament to us as a club, and as a B team, that Inter Miami have asked us to work with him and trust in us to continue working with him to help him with his development."
