Miami Beckham United targeting 2019 MLS season

With no desire to play in a temporary stadium

David Beckham’s path to bringing an MLS franchise to Miami has been a rocky one thronged with hurdles, but the Miami Beckham United Group has remained persistent with the current goal being to launch their team in the 2019 season, with a “major announcement” coming in the next few months, per the Daily Mail:

.   .   .

The report also names Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Wes Edens as a potential investor and that the group remains “all-in” for a stadium in Overtown.

.   .   .

Once they lock down a major investor and finish negotiations with the county over the stadium site, it should equate to smoother sailing. For now, it appears things are on track for 2019 but with the way things have played out so far, it’d be foolish to bank on anything.
