Gotham FC is currently engaged in discussions regarding a potential relocation to the forthcoming Etihad Park in Queens, New York, as a new home venue. This potential move is being eyed for the start of the 2028 NWSL season, according to reports confirmed by ESPN Soccer.

This exploration comes as New York City FC prepares to open its dedicated soccer facility, which promises to offer a purpose-built environment for the sport. For Gotham FC, securing a tenancy at a modern, dedicated venue represents a significant upgrade in infrastructure and potential revenue streams, aligning with the league's growing stature.

The talks suggest a major shift in the NWSL landscape in the New York metropolitan area, potentially uniting the city's top-tier soccer clubs, both men's and women's, in closer proximity. The move would finalize a long-term playing solution for Gotham FC, moving away from shared or temporary arrangements.

While the negotiations are confirmed to be underway, the final agreement for Gotham FC to play at the NYCFC-developed stadium remains contingent on the successful completion of the construction timeline and mutual contractual terms.
