Four years ago, we dreamt of a soccer club.
Today, we’re proud to announce the official crest of that club.
Join us on a journey that has only just begun.

Yesterday, MLS got its first look at Beckham’s new toy and, well, its everything a Beckham could have ever wanted. Club Internacional de Fútbol Miami, is slated to be MLS’ 26th soccer team in 2020 with the expansion of Nashville and Cincinnati. It feels like ages ago that the MLS announced for Beckham to expand a franchise into Miami, and finally we get to see what Victoria designed as the teams look. Now it comes as a surprise to everyone on how exotic Miami’s new soccer club looks like. You’ll never see a Miami team to have an exotic and crazy logo scheme. Not the Dolphins with their teal and orange, not the Marlins with their bright orange and blue, nor the Heat with their 26 uniforms. Nope. Miami is full of conservative logo schemes. Beckham now joins an ELITE number of Club Operatives playboy’s Of Miami including Derek Jeter, Pat Riley, and Johnny Depp?
But let’s take a deeper look at that logo.
I think we can just get this out of the way, those are flamingos. Miami and all these, “well technically,” idiots can try and say otherwise. Probably makeup a name for a bird like heron, but those two birds will forever be associated with being flamingos. Hey, Miami PR, if you don’t want people calling them flamingos, maybe don’t stamp a bird that looks super closely related to a flamingo, oh and maybe don’t make the color pink. Secondly, can we talk about how crappy that name is. Club Internacional de Fútbol. Hello? Where do they think they’re going to play? Argentina? Not to go full American here, but buddy it’s the MLS not Liga MX. I get that there is a HUGE Latin community in Miami, but they can live with the Miami Flamingos or something. We do have to go and be the fake Inter Milan. Really? Inter Miami. That shit is just not going to fly. Everyone in Miami is going to call it “Miami,” or, “that team in Miami.” We are definitely not going to call them Inter Miami CF no chance in hell.
Inter Milan Miami SC CF is comes as a surprise from David Beckham. You would never expect Beckham to be exotic or looking for something different to be in the spotlight. Nope Beckham is a quiet folk.
Now that David is set to be the President of Football operations, he’ll have even less time to be shopping with Posh Spice. But Victoria Beckham and the new Club Internazionale of the team that lives in Miami Club Football team, are very different of course. One just got a brand new fresh face, and will be the hottest thing in the MLS in 2020 and the other is the new soccer team in Miami.
I leave you with a quick thought. If we as a country do not hold our owners accountable for adding Football to their team name, then we as a nation will remain in friendzone of American soccer fans. “Like MLS you’re really cool to hang around. Like it’s a good time when we’re together. You’re like a brother to me but I’m just not ready to respect you as a real threat yet.” ITS SOCCER PLEASE GET OVER IT!!!!!!!
