Bolivian Marcelo Claure is hoping he can get a Miami team into Major League Soccer in the near future.
The Club Bolivar chairman recently had an interview which was posted on mlsmiami.blogspot.com discussing how he plans to go about pushing for a team in South Florida.
"As we continue working to bring MLS to South Florida, we will build connections with fans through Q&As like this, organized soccer viewing events, and many other grassroots efforts. We will absolutely want to work with La Academia on these efforts," he told fan club La Academia.
"Depending on what the ultimate ownership looks like, we would evaluate the Miami Fusion FC name as well as other options. We want a name that the local fans can completely embrace and own.
"To have a Major League Soccer team that is extremely competitive in the league and a force to be reckoned with regionally (is the plan). It is very important that this team is embraced, loved, and supported by all South Floridians."
