The NWSL’s latest expansion team will be called Bay Football Club, the founders announced Thursday. But there’s still no word on where the team will play.
Bay Football ClubRetired national team players Brandi Chastain, Leslie Osborne, Danielle Slaton and Aly Wagner were joined at the announcement by NWSL Commissioner Jessica Berman and Alan Waxman, the CEO of investment firm Sixth Street.
The U.S. soccer legends are fronting an ownership group that features a record $125 million from Sixth Street. The NWSL’s 14th team will begin playing in the Bay Area next season, though there have been no roster or coaching announcements, and it’s unclear where the team will play. Waxman has said the team is seeking to “build a soccer mecca” for a long-term home, but it’ll need somewhere to play in the short term. The NWSL season typically begins in March or April.
A video released by the club Thursday shows both San Francisco’s Kezar Stadium and San Jose’s PayPal Park.
