Inter Miami CF News Release
MIAMI - Inter Miami CF announced today an additional preseason match as part of the Club's 2026 Champions Tour, with the MLS Cup titleholders set to face current Ecuadorian LigaPro Serie A champions Independiente del Valle in a thrilling encounter at Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium located in Bayamón, Puerto Rico on Feb. 13 at 8 p.m. ET.
The fixture in the Caribbean island becomes Inter Miami's fourth preparation match as part of the 2026 preseason slate, adding to the trio of matches across South America in Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador that were announced last month.
