Second New York franchise on MLS agenda

A second MLS franchise is on the agenda, says MLS Commissioner Don Garber.

Garber said there is "lots and lots of activity" toward establishing the league's 20th team in New York City in an interview with AP reporters.

Garber said "a good percentage of our league president's [Mark Abbott] time of trying to figure out a way that we can sell and launch a 20th team in New York . . . a team that will be a rival of the Red Bulls and capitalize on the momentum that the Red Bulls have built in this market" at their two-year-old stadium in Harrison, N.J.
