(Reuters) - Major League Soccer Commissioner Don Garber said on Wednesday that he expected to be celebrating soon with David Beckham on his ownership of a new club in Miami pending the resolution of a "couple of issues".

Beckham's bid to win approval for a Miami franchise was taken up by the league's board of governors ahead of Wednesday's All-Star game but has yet to get the final nod.
