So this is news that has been making its rounds around the soccer world, that could potentially lure MLS back to Tampa. Apparently plans are for a $400m stadium of 28,000 seats that could be expanded to 40,000 and will be built by 2016.
Interestingly enough, they plan to build it just north of the Forum. Also it should be noted that Vinik is a board member of Liverpool FC.
All of that being said, I think this is more fictitious or a pipe dream and don't really seeing this becoming a reality, but what do I know. However, I do prefer soccer and would love to see the MLS back in the area.
