Inter Miami’s stars are yet to align

THE stars may have arrived in Miami, but they’re yet to align for the city’s Major League Soccer side, Club Internacional de Futbol Miami.

More commonly and conveniently known as Inter Miami, the club part-owned by David Beckham have had a rough start to MLS life and, in their second season, are struggling under new head coach Phil Neville.

The profile of the club and of Beckham will always mean they garner more global interest than some of the other sides in the league, and being based in the celebrity city of Miami (even though the club plays its home games in nearby Fort Lauderdale) also brings added attention.
