Tampa Bay reveals MLS stadium plans for expansion bid

MLS expansion is a topic that knows no season or limit. Ever since the David Beckham era the league has been in a race towards to next club, next city or next big superstar. With Don Garber confirming that the league will at least reach 28 teams, cities across the country are lining up bids and stadium proposals.

Tampa Bay took another massive step forward, releasing renderings of plans to upgrade Al Lang Stadium for MLS standards. As reported by the Tampa Bay Times, the owner plans for a $80 million renovation that would bring the grounds up to current standards and be able to seat 18,000 fans.
