Inter Miami are set to move to a new home in 2026 as club owner David Beckham has announced plans for a brand new stadium.
The team currently play their football in the Chase Stadium in Miami which has a capacity of just 21,000.
The Chase Stadium only opened its doors in 2020 when Inter Miami played their first ever game as a club, two years after they were founded.

Considering the acquisition of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Sergio Busquets in the last 18 months, it's no surprise the club are looking to expand in every way possible.
Although their current ground is still very much a new facility, the club has announced that they will be moving to the 'Miami Freedom Park' in 2026.
Club owner David Beckham announced the news with two Instagram stories on Wednesday.
The first story caption read: "An exciting chapter in our club's history". In the second story, Beckham wrote: "Freedom to dream".

While the stadium is set to be see a significant rise in capacity from the current ground, fans may be left disappointed as the main attraction may not be present by the time the stadium opens.
Lionel Messi's current contract with the MLS side runs out at the end of 2025, meaning if the Argentine doesn't sign an extension with the club he will not be playing at the new ground.
Further details on the proposed 'Miami Freedom Park' were provided on the Inter Miami website through Inter Miami's managing owner, Jorge Mas.

“The next stages of the Miami Freedom Park project bring us closer to reaching our dream of making it the official home of Inter Miami CF. Embodying our ethos of ‘Freedom to Dream,’ we've been diligently building something extraordinary—a place where every fan will cherish unforgettable fútbol moments. As we look ahead to the opening of our new stadium, we eagerly anticipate creating a world-class venue that reflects our passion, commitment, and the collective dreams of our South Florida community,” said Mas.
“After years of dreaming, it is so exciting to be sharing that in 2026 Inter Miami will be moving to its long-term home at Miami Freedom Park,” added Co-Owner, David Beckham. “Miami Freedom Park is the culmination of years of hard work and a desire to realise a vision and create a lasting legacy for the fans and the community of Miami and South Florida. I’m so happy to see that dream finally coming to life.”
