Major League Soccer is in “exploratory” discussions with New York City officials to find a home for a new team in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, according to a league official.
MLS has looked at 20 sites in New York’s five boroughs, including Pier 40 on Manhattan’s West Side and Randall’s Island, said Dan Courtemanche, executive vice president of communications. Several ownership groups are interested in bidding on a franchise, he said, declining to name them.
