DAVID BECKHAM will launch his long-planned Major League Soccer team next week.
The former England captain’s club is due to be officially announced on Monday.
Expected confirmation comes after four years of wrangling over a site for the stadium.
Residents in Southern Florida have opposed multiple locations.
But despite no official announcement being made, Goldenballs is due to make an announcement next week.
BBC Sport claim that the MLS told them it “continues to make progress toward finalising an expansion club for Miami – we hope to have more details soon”.
And The Miami Herald reported today that the “tentative plan is for a Monday announcement” but “scheduling issues could bump that to Tuesday”.
Associated Press is also stating that the announcement is planned for the start of next week.
Back in November the MLS said it would approve the Beckham-backed franchise “in the coming months”.
BBC Sport also say that Miami-Dade County mayor Carlos Gimenez’s office the mayor “has been asked to hold time on his calendar for an event”.
However, they could not “confirm what the team may be announcing”.
Beckham began his bid to launch a team in Miami in early 2014.
The Manchester United legend retired from playing on May 18 2013.
He was made captain for Paris Saint-Germain in their 3-1 victory over Brest.
Becks enjoyed a stellar career that also included memorable spells with Real Madrid, AC Milan and LA Galaxy in the USA before heading to the French capital.
