MLS Coming to Miami


MLS Coming to Miami

10-2-13

Retired English soccer star David Beckham is in talks to bring a Major League Soccer team to Miami, but he has a rival Italian Bidder. Alessandro Butini hopes to sweep the team out from under the nose of Beckham.
Part of the deal included an option to buy a MLS club at a discounted price that will end in December, and Beckham says that Miami is his first choice for a city. Unfortunately Butani has set up a website for his bid, and is working closely with the Miami University School of Architecture. They have even made a design of a potential downtown stadium.
Beckham has toured Miami several times and has visited multiple stadiums, but the MLS has stated that it would like the club to have it’s own Venue. A proper Stadium would seat 18,000- 20,000 people, and would cost somewhere between 70 and 85 million dollars.
Butini met with MLS commissioner Don Garber earlier this year in New York and has a London-based group including real estate venture capitalist Marco Novelli and Suzie MacCagnan, who have brokered deals between foreign investment groups and English Premier League clubs.
"Commissioner Garber told me the stadium is the biggest variable, the number one priority, so I am tackling that issue head on,” Butini said.
