Beckham's Miami MLS team gets stadium boost from unanimous City Council vote

David Beckham's Miami MLS team won a victory on Tuesday as the Fort Lauderdale City Council gave unanimous support to the club's bid to build a soccer training complex and 18,000-seat exhibition stadium in Broward.

Beckham and his partners were facing a rival bid from FXE Futbol for a stadium plan paired with retail and entertainment development as well.

Inter Miami's ownership group has put forward that it is willing to spend $60 million to turn the Lockhart Stadiumu200b site into an 18,000 seat stadium and a training complex which will host the club's home matches for the 2020 and 2021 seasons.
