Minnesota United’s local broadcast partner will be Fox Sports North for the 2018 Major League Soccer season, a source told the Pioneer Press on Friday.

Loons games have been broadcast on local Fox subsidiary My29, WFTC-TV, for a few years, including the inaugural campaign in MLS in 2017. Terms of the deal with FSN are not known, including how many games will be part of the agreement and which ones might conflict with the regional sports channel’s existing offerings of Timberwolves, Wild and Twins games. An announcement on the deal is expected in a week.

Minnesota will have two of its 34 regular-season games in 2018 on national television in the U.S. The matchup against the Seattle Sounders on April 22 will be on ESPN; the June 3 match against Sporting Kansas City is scheduled for FS1.

Minnesota welcomes back the three-member broadcast team assembled before the 2017 season — play-by-play commentator Callum Williams, color commentator Kyndra de St. Aubin and sideline analyst Jamie Watson.

Brad Baker, United’s senior director of video production, announced Thursday he is leaving the club for an job with the United Soccer League in Tampa, Fla. Baker’s five-year run with the club made him one of the longest-tenured employees.
