This is a soccer hotbed, so many of our players that come from this city, we’ve had great national team games here, CONCACAF games here, enormous success with friendlies, the women’s team is doing well,” MLS Commissioner Don Garber said. “It’s a dream team from an ownership perspective, but the market speaks for itself. The Wave, in its second season, is drawing an average of more than 21,000 fans to Snapdragon. Mansour is also majority owner of a Danish soccer club. He is founder of Man Capital, an investment management firm which owns Right to Dream, an organization that helps identify and develop talented soccer players internationally.

Mansour, who is based in London, is worth an estimated $3.6 billion. The stadium is also home to the San Diego Wave of the National Women’s Soccer League and the university’s football team. The team will play at San Diego State’s Snapdragon Stadium, which opened last year. A team name and crest will be revealed in the future. The addition of the San Diego franchise balances MLS at 15 teams per conference. The ownership group also includes San Diego Padres star third baseman Manny Machado. The expansion team announced Thursday is owned by billionaire Mohamed Mansour and the Sycuan Tribe, the first Native American tribe to have an ownership stake in a professional soccer team. Major League Soccer has awarded San Diego its 30th franchise, which is set to join the league in 2025.
