David Beckham's goal of bringing an MLS expansion franchise to Miami is inching closer to the finish line, with banker Todd Boehly being added to his investment group, sources confirmed to ESPN FC.

The Daily Mail was the first to report Boehly's involvement in the project.

The MLS Board of Governors met earlier this week in Colorado Springs, and a source confirmed that the terms of the deal adding Boehly to Beckham's group, known as Miami Beckham United, were discussed.
