David Beckham is in Miami tonight, hanging out with several players from the Brazil national team ahead of their game against Honduras this weekend in South Florida.

Beckham met up with several of the Brazilian players including Neymar, David Luiz and Lucas Leiva in the downtown Miami hotel where the team is staying.

The Brazilians posted photos of themselves alongside Beckham on social media. All indications are that Beckham will announce his Miami MLS franchise in the next several weeks. The only major question to be answered is what stadium the Miami MLS team will play at.

There’s no word yet whether Beckham is planning on attending the Brazil-Honduras game, but a small number of tickets are available for the game. According to Miami Herald reporter Michelle Kaufman, Beckham is having dinner tonight with Miami businessman Marcelo Claure and Miami mayor Carlos Gimenez. Beckham is planning on scouting sites tomorrow for the Miami MLS team.

    What’s his team name going to be? Given other MLS teams have ripped off European club names, Miami Hotspurs is one of the few not used yet.
