NEW BLOW FOR BECKS’ DREAM

JUST when David Beckham thought his plans to start building a stadium for his MLS team were finally moving forward, along comes yet another lawsuit to muddy the waters. The former England captain (right) had an agreement in principle to renovate the decrepit former home of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers, Lockhart Stadium, for his side Inter Miami to make their belated entrance into MLS next year. It’s the sixth proposed site for Beckham’s team but more legal wrangling is brewing. Florida-based sports entertainment company FXE Futbol are also interested in the site and argue city bosses violated state laws when evaluating the two bids. Inter Miami also claim there is an asbestos problem which, they stress, means the whole site needs to be bulldozed.
