“The opening of our new headquarters in Miami, Florida is quite significant for our Concacaf family, not only for the support it provides to our 41 Member Associations, but what is also important, it is the evidence of how Concacaf is moving forward,” said Concacaf President Victor Montagliani. “It underpins the great work we are doing across the Confederation and the journey that we have taken to grow football in this city and across the region.”
“The City of Miami has established itself as a world-class global destination, as evidenced by the arrival of international organizations like Concacaf,” said Miami Mayor Francis Suarez. “Concacaf’s mission to unite diverse cultures over the game of football aligns with Miami’s position as a uniquely diverse and multicultural city.”
