D.C. United Explores Expanding Soccer Presence in Baltimore
D.C. United is advancing plans to bring professional soccer to Baltimore, including a women’s team, a minor league men’s side, and a youth academy. The initiative centers on a proposed $200 million, 7,500-seat stadium to support these teams. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott and D.C. United officials, including CEO Jason Levien, are collaborating on the development. NBA legend and Baltimore native Carmelo Anthony is among the prospective owners involved in the project. The arrangement seeks to strengthen the club's regional footprint and cultivate soccer talent locally.
