Major League Soccer awards expansion team to San Diego

Major League Soccer is coming to San Diego.

The Southern California city has been awarded the league's 30th team, MLS Commissioner Don Garber announced Thursday. San Diego will begin competing as an expansion club in 2025 at Snapdragon Stadium – the 35,000-seat venue that's already home to the NWSL's San Diego Wave FC and is a host venue for the 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup – while their name and crest will be announced in the buildup to their debut season.

The club is owned by Mohamed Mansour – a distinguished entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist with deep, global ties in the soccer world – and the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation. The Sycuan Tribe becomes the first Native American tribe to have an ownership stake in professional soccer in the United States. Also joining the investor group is six-time Major League Baseball All-Star and San Diego Padres infielder Manny Machado.

MLS doesn’t want to scare club owners away. Mexico, Korea and Japan also do not promote/demote teams.

Action is starting to pick up in Major League Soccer as we quickly approach the halfway point of the season. It might seem like struggling teams have a lot of time to make up ground, but points and certain games are starting to become a bit more important. Here’s a look at what went down in Week 15.
