The 26th season of Major League Soccer begins on Friday, April 16, with a nationally televised match between the Seattle Sounders and Minnesota United on FS1 (a rematch of last year’s unbelievable Western Conference final). The MLS national TV schedule 2021 grows from there with FOX Sports, ABC/ESPN and TUDN all broadcasting a historic amount of games.
The 2021 MLS season marks the return of fans to stadiums across the league and, God willing, the death of fake crowd noise. Beginning with the start of the regular season on Friday, April 16, teams across the country will welcome back supporters at grounds with capacity generally limited to somewhere between 10 and 50 percent.
Sometimes I think about how little that vast majority of life and its hard-knock lessons pertain to David Beckham. Yes, he once gave Diego Simeone a love tap on the knee-pit, but that 23-year-old incident hardly caused Golden Balls to shrink from being fully alive for the rest of his days.
As reported by The Mirror's John Cross, ex-Liverpool star Daniel Sturridge is weighing up a potential move to MLS.
Both DC United and David Beckham's Inter Miami have reportedly made their interest in Sturridge known to the player's agent. Beckham and Inter Miami, coached by Phil Neville, have already shown their pulling power, attracting high-caliber international players such as Blaise Matuidi and Gonzalo Higuain.
Major League Soccer on Friday launched a formal review of Inter Miami's signing of midfielder Blaise Matuidi.
According to a brief statement issued by the league, the investigation will focus on whether the signing in August 2020 complied with MLS salary budget and roster guidelines. The league said it will make no further comment until completion of its investigation.
Forced to operate from a distance last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, David Beckham promised on Friday to be the hands on owner he said he would be and defended hiring his friend Phil Neville as Inter Miami coach.
Despite qualifying for the Major League Soccer playoffs in their debut campaign in 2020, Beckham said he was not happy with the culture within the club he co-owns with Jorge Mas and started the new season by sacking manager Diego Alonso and bringing in former Manchester United teammate Neville.
David Beckham decided that he needed to teach Inter Miami’s academy players a lesson when he joined in on their training session earlier in the week.
In a short clip that Beckham posted to his Instagram, Inter Miami’s owner showed the world that he’s still got it. The 45-year-old played the last game of his career in 2013 but can still provide a mean nutmeg.
England Women's team manager Phil Neville is in talks with Inter Miami, the Major League Soccer club owned by his former Manchester United teammate and friend David Beckham, who sacked manager Diego Alonso on Thursday.
Sue Campbell, the English FA's director of women's football, told the BBC Neville would lead the Team GB soccer side at this year's Tokyo Olympics unless he took the Miami job. Neville's England deal ends in July.
Desde que Lionel Messi le confesó a Jordi Évoli en una entrevista que le gustaría jugar en la MLS, tengo una visión del argentino liderando un Dream Team latino en el Inter de Miami FC en 2022 o 2023. Un equipo que incluiría también a Neymar Jr., Luis Suárez, Arturo Vidal, Alexis Sánchez y James Rodríguez.
