That came after the Earthquakes’ former owner, AEG, moved their team to Houston to become the Dynamo at the end of 2005, and there was no professional soccer in San José during the 2006 and 2007 seasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fisher’s group could see a significant profit on the sale, with the club valued at $540 million by \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/justinbirnbaum/2025/02/21/the-most-valuable-mls-teams-2025/\">Forbes\u003c/a>, which is below the league average of $690 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team’s press release did not offer a reason for the sale.

The league has since added a 30th team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San José Mayor Matt Mahan told KQED he views the potential sale as an opportunity for the team and the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“An opportunity for more investment, new energy, an opportunity to take the team to the next level,” he said. “The hope with any new ownership group is that they’ll come in with some fresh energy and extra resources to put into the team and that will help the team compete for a championship.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mahan added that city leaders are laying out a vision to create a future sports entertainment district in the western portion of downtown, near the SAP Center where the San Jose Sharks have long played, and thinks the area could be a future home for the Earthquakes and Bay FC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they’re looking at their future home, I want them to think first and foremost of downtown San José as the place to put down roots,” he said. “We’re a soccer city. We love our Quakes and we love Bay FC.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear whether a potential new owner would keep the Earthquakes’ previous $50 million commitment for a potential eight-field public-private soccer training facility at the Santa Clara County fairgrounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A preliminary deal between San José, the county and the team was struck in late 2023 to explore creating such a facility that would be partially open to youth soccer teams and the public, but Mahan said the county has stalled the effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team is also investing in creating a second training facility on the site of a parking lot and tailgate area behind PayPal Park, and is updating some team facilities, including dining rooms and coaches’ meeting rooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

We love our Quakes and we love Bay FC.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear whether a potential new owner would keep the Earthquakes’ previous $50 million commitment for a potential eight-field public-private soccer training facility at the Santa Clara County fairgrounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A preliminary deal between San José, the county and the team was struck in late 2023 to explore creating such a facility that would be partially open to youth soccer teams and the public, but Mahan said the county has stalled the effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team is also investing in creating a second training facility on the site of a parking lot and tailgate area behind PayPal Park, and is updating some team facilities, including dining rooms and coaches’ meeting rooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Galaxy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You don't even care for the price,\" said Amado Flores, a native of Mexico and a San Jose soccer fan through the franchise's many incarnations since the 1980s. \"You just go to get in and make some noise, and feel like to be in Mexico only for a few minutes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opening of Avaya Stadium brings an end, mostly, to the franchise's wanderings.

At this new site we have a stadium, a practice stadium, a locker room, front offices,\" said Jed Mettee, the team's vice president of marketing and communications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an effort to expand the franchise fan base, the team has made occasional big-game appearances at Levi's Stadium, Candlestick Park, Stanford Stadium, AT&T Park and the Oakland Coliseum. Mettee said the team will still do that at times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mettee said there will now be more exhibition games at Avaya Stadium. In May the U.S. Women's National Team will play Ireland there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avaya Stadium was privately financed by the ownership group, including Lew Wolff and John Fisher -- also owners of the Oakland A's. Santa Clara-based Avaya, a business services company, bought naming rights in a 10-year deal at $2 million a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new stadium now sits on land that has gone through some changes. It was once home to \u003ca href=\"http://https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=fmc+corporation&ei=UTF-8&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-001\">FMC Corp.\u003c/a>, a diversified manufacturing company that, among many other products, built the Bradley Fighting Vehicle for military customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To highlight that connection with the site's past, the Quakes plan to display one of the vehicles in the stadium's main entrance.\u003c/p>\n\n",

(AP) — Victor Bernardez scored on a free kick deep into stoppage time Sunday night to lift the San Jose Earthquakes to a 1-0 triumph over the Los Angeles Galaxy in the opener of their Western Conference semifinal series.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Honduran defender blistered the ball from 31 yards through the Galaxy wall at the top of the box and off goalkeeper Josh Saunders, who was unable to keep it from crossing the goal line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second leg in the aggregate series is Wednesday in Santa Clara with the winner in the aggregate series advancing to a home-and-home matchup with the Seattle Sounders or Real Salt Lake for a berth in the Dec. 1 MLS Cup final.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s halftime,” said San Jose coach Frank Yallop, whose team twice rallied from two-goal deficits to beat L.A. and overcame two disadvantages for a 2-2 draw two weeks ago in the regular-season meetings between the longtime rivals. “It was an even game, they shaded on chances, for sure, but we’re going home now. … We’re one up, but 90 minutes of football is a long, long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re going to throw everything at us to try to get the equalizer and obviously try to go on and win. We know that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bernardez, who forced a sprawling save from Saunders on a free kick at the start of the second half, took the kick after Marcelo Sarvas fouled Simon Dawkins, a call the Galaxy disputed. His low shot sneaked through the wall, and Saunders made the initial stop but couldn’t corral the spinning ball.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m always looking to score when I take a free kick like that from distance …,” said Bernardez, a Honduran center back. “The important thing is it went it. That’s all that really matters.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Galaxy had more and better chances in an intense affair battled primarily in midfield, but their best opportunity — a Robbie Keane blast from 26 yards in the 86th minute— caromed off the crossbar. L.A. didn’t take a shot until the 67th minute — Sean Franklin firing toward the lower-left corner — and that was the only difficult stop Quakes goalkeeper Jon Busch was forced to make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought our team played well tonight,” Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said. “Obviously, we didn’t finish off plays technically in and around the penalty area. It cost us the game. We were in position to get a goal or two tonight for sure.
