It replaced Estadio Vicente Calderon, which lacked possibilities for expansion and modernization being enclosed by a river and a motorway on one side and residential buildings on the other. The stadium got built on the site of Estadio La Peineta, an athletics stadium with one large concrete stand. Parts of that stand were incorporated in the design of the new stadium, while the rest was demolished. The project was partly financed through the sale of the land of Estadio Vicente Calderon. In December 2016, Atletico announced that their new stadium would be called Wanda Metropolitano, with Wanda being the […]

The Miami Dolphins suspended starting outside linebacker Lawrence Timmons indefinitely, the team announced on Tuesday. Timmons went AWOL from the team unexpectedly this past weekend and did not play in Sunday’s 19-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.
