The talks of bringing an expansion team to Phoenix is starting to happen a little by little. The only professional team is called the Arizona United FC, which they kinda suck. But they play in the west valley and east valley people don't want to travel to the west side, mainly like an hour drive. That the main situation problem why the attendee is low for the Arizona Coyotes.
But in order to bring an professional team to the city. The city and fans needs to cough up money for new stadium venues and currently tons of teams wants new venues. Like the Coyotes, Suns and even the Diamondbacks, there have been talks of the Coyotes and Suns to share an arena again or the Coyotes will move to ASU. Because the Sun Devils also want a new arena for there basketball and hockey teams. The stadium for the Dbacks is nearly 20 years old and needs some major renovation and the team wants to reduce the amount of seats in the stadium.
But the fans and MLS wants the stadium to be located near downtown, possibly on the old coliseum were the Suns use to play, current home of the state fair grounds (aka a major dump site) but could possibly bring that side of Phoenix back to life or if the Dbacks get a new ballpark, they could play were the old Chase Field is located. I guess, they don't want to use Cardinals stadium, located in the west valley since the east valley residence bitches about traveling about an hour drive. But of coarse they would be coming home late for a work night.
