For a moment this weekend, it seemed that New York City Football Club had found a home. The Major League Soccer expansion team, which is partly owned by Manchester City of England’s Premier League and the Yankees, does not begin play until 2015, but Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg appeared to indicate in his weekly radio address that the club would play its home games at Yankee Stadium.

“Yankee Stadium will become the home of the New York City Football Club, the first soccer club in the five boroughs since the 1970s,” Bloomberg said in an address that detailed the quality of the city’s professional sports scene.

After the line raised questions and discussion among soccer fans, the mayor’s office issued a correction Monday indicating that Bloomberg — reading an address prepared for him by staff members — was mistaken.

“The script for the mayor’s radio address on Sunday overstated the possibility that the New York Football Club could play some games at Yankee Stadium while they search for a permanent home,” Julie Wood, the deputy press secretary, said. “No decision has been made on where they will play. Wherever they end up, we are thrilled to welcome Major League Soccer to New York City, where pro sports are creating jobs and pumping millions into our economy.”
