San Diego FC history
Major League Soccer awarded San Diego an expansion team on May 18, 2023, and the club kicked off in the 2025 season as the league's 30th member. It lines up in the Western Conference. The official name is San Diego Football Club, and the shorter San Diego FC is what appears on most schedules and standings.
Ownership is a partnership. Mohamed Mansour, a British-Egyptian businessman and former politician, leads the group together with a federally recognized Native American tribe, Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation. Home games take place at Snapdragon Stadium, which can hold about 35,000 people. Because the club is so new, its trophy cabinet has no MLS Cup in it yet.
