Look: Chargers, Rams stadium 85% complete

An update on the new home to the Los Angeles Chargers and Rams.

The Los Angeles Chargers and Rams’ 2019 season is behind them. But what awaits them is SoFi Stadium, the permanent home to both teams starting in August of 2020.

With seven months until they play their first game in the stadium located in Inglewood, CA, a lot of progress has been made. At the moment, it is more than 85% complete.

Here is a glance at the progress of the stadium:

Players and coaches of the Chargers are eager to move into their home after spending the past three seasons in Dignity Health Sports Park, the main stadium to the L.A. Galaxy of the Major League Soccer league.

The state-of-the-art arena that’s worth $5 billion will seat more than 70,000 and will not only house the Chargers and Rams, but will include retail and residence.

The stadium and the surroundings will be fully constructed this summer.

Look: Chargers and Rams’ new stadium continues to take shape

The Chargers and Rams’ new stadium in Inglewood, California is really starting to come to life.

No, the Chargers will not be moving to London.

Owner Dean Spanos said Los Angeles is the team’s home, and they’re planning to be there for a long time.

It’s been almost three years since the Chargers moved to the L.A. area. The team has been playing in Dignity Health Sports Park, a 27,000-seat soccer stadium in Carson, as a temporary spot. But in 2020, they and the Rams will have their permanent home: SoFi Stadium in Inglewood.

The $5 billion stadium complex is expected to be 3.5 times larger than Disneyland, and the stadium itself will seat 70,000 people. Spanos is hoping those seats will be filled with Chargers fans after failing to draw them to their current stadium, which has been overtaken by supporters of the visiting teams.

The crew that’s been hard at work to ensure that the Chargers and Rams have one of the best-looking stadiums in the league continues to make it all come to life before the grand opening in 2020.
