Ruben Diaz: Bronx the “Perfect Home” for NYCFC

Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz would like NYCFC to build its new stadium in the Bronx:

“The Bronx would be the perfect home for a new professional soccer franchise. I am ready to work with Major League Soccer to make this a reality, and I look forward to beginning this conversation.”

Disturbingly, President Diaz’s letter to MLS Commissioner Garber cites unnamed “reports” that the MLS’s plan to build NYCFC’s stadium in Flushing Meadows “have stalled and may not be able to be revived”. Query what the source of these “reports” could be.
