Beckham's team eyes university

David Beckham's dreams of seeing his new Miami team gracing a state-of-the-art stadium in a prestigious downtown location seemed further away than ever on Tuesday after local authorities suggested the club temporarily play at a university. A year after Beckham announced plans for a new Major League Soccer franchise, the former Manchester United star has been repeatedly frustrated in his attempts to secure a home for his as-yet unnamed squad, ahead of the club's debut season, originally slated for 2017. County commissioners want Mayor Carlos Gimenez to strike a compromise to house the new team at Florida International University (FIU) in the short term.
