Beckham eyes Zidane for his Inter Miami MLS side

The pair played together at Real Madrid and still maintain a cordial relationship with the former England captain now overseeing his new MLS franchise.

David Beckham is still working with his backroom staff on putting together the pieces for his new MLS side in Miami (Florida) with Inter Miami set to make their MLS debut in the 2020 season.

The Florida based club have already started the recruitment process for the players who will wear the pink and black, but have yet to decide on who will sit on the bench at Lochkart Stadium where the side will play for two seasons during the period where a bespoke stadium close to Miami International airport, currently dubbed Miami Freedom Park will be constructed.

Sources in the UK claim that Beckham has set his sights on securing French coach Zinedine Zidane to oversee the new project in a coaching capacity. The French manager abandoned Real Madrid in May 2018 after winning the Champions League only to return to the club earlier this year following the dismissal of Santiago Solari.

FYI Miami: September 12, 2019

MELREESE-MIA REPORT ORDERED: Miami-Dade lawmakers have ordered a report on how developing stadiums, hotels or commercial space at the Melreese Golf Course could affect operations at Miami International Airport (MIA). “This analysis shall consider: traffic impacts, potential road closures, environmental impacts, commercial impacts, airport operations and aviation impacts, if any, the costs to MIA to mitigate any such impacts, and Federal Aviation Administration requirements,” said the item sponsored by Rebeca Sosa and co-sponsored by Esteban Bovo Jr., Daniella Levine Cava and Joe Martinez. “To date, no study has been made of the potential impacts to MIA from the development of Melreese.” Aviation Director Lester Sola told commissioners at a July tourism committee meeting that significant development at Melreese could prompt a federal downgrade of certain runways at the airport, which is the county’s leading economic engine. Mr. Sola said developer Miami Freedom Park LLC, which includes David Beckham, Jorge Mas and other partners, had met with the aviation department but was “not looking at [how development would impact the airport] right now.” The report, ordered Sept. 4, is due in December.
