Inter Miami's president of football operations, Raúl Sanllehí is no longer in charge of sporting matters, and has been replaced by the Herons academy director, Guillermo Hoyos, a source confirmed to ESPN.

Lionel Messi-led Inter Miami has shaken up its front office following a reported incident after an exhibition match.

The Athletic confirmed the Sanllehi-Messi incident via an anonymous club source. Inter Miami issued a statement saying that the Sanllehi decision was "pre-planned" and not a response to the exchange on the bus, per the original report from GiveMeSport’s Tom Bogert.

Inter Miami has reassigned president of football operations Raul Sanllehi, replacing him with a longtime mentor of Lionel Messi.

Sanllehi’s duties have been reassigned to the club’s academy director Guillermo Hoyos, a long-time confidant and former academy coach of Inter Miami captain and former Barcelona legend Lionel Messi. GiveMeSport’s Tom Bogert first reported news of Sanllehi’s reassignment.

Inter Miami underwent another front-office change last week as Guillermo Hoyos, a longtime Lionel Messi associate from his youth days in Barcelona, had his role expanded from director of player development and methodology of the second team to being directly involved in scouting and roster construction of the first team.

Lionel Messi's Inter Miami have recently gone through an office shakeup, with President of Football Operations Raul Sanllehi being replaced by Guillermo Hoyos.
