It was the first year since 2014 that there were two first-division soccer clubs that played in the Greater Los Angeles Area, following the disbandment of Chivas USA in 2014.

Background

The team was first announced in October 2014, following the folding of Chivas USA. It was first reported in May 2015, that LAFC had chosen a location for their stadium, which would be the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena site at Exposition Park.[1][2] The environmental impact report, arena demolition and stadium construction are expected to take three years and delay the team's debut to 2018.

On July 27, 2017, Bob Bradley was announced as the coach for the inaugural season of the club.[3] Bradley previously coached Swansea City in the English Premier League,[4] as well as various European and Americans clubs as well. Internationally, Bradley previously coached the United States' and Egypt's national teams.[5]
