Inter Miami is facing another legal challenge, this one all the way from Italy.

David Beckham’s long-awaited Major League Soccer team, scheduled to begin play in March 2020, is engaged in a trademark dispute with storied Italian club Inter Milan over the word “Inter.”

Inter Milan, officially known as FC Internazionale Milano S.p.A, filed a U.S. Patent and Trademark application in 2014 to make the abbreviated version of its name — “Inter” — an exclusive brand, which would prevent Inter Miami from marketing itself as “Inter.” The full name of the Miami team is Club Internacional de Futbol Miami.

Major League Soccer on March 25, 2019, filed an opposition to Inter Milan’s claim that it should have exclusive rights to “Inter.”
