Minnesota United FC
Minnesota United FC is an accessible, resilient and unifying force bringing the fastest growing sport in the country to fans in Minnesota and across the Twin Cities with innovative style. Building a new home in the heart of two industrious cities, the North is rising — not replicating, but ushering in a new era of soccer in America.
“This charity is giving some kids who would not normally have an opportunity to do great things with their lives, the opportunity to be great,” Wright said. “It is incumbent upon all of big business and all of the business leaders in the state of Minnesota to try and associate with young men and young women who are at risk — who need help.”
Club History
Professional soccer has been a part of Minnesota for over four decades, and since 2013, Minnesota United FC has been at the forefront of growing the game at all levels. MNUFC currently competes in three different levels established by Major League Soccer: Minnesota United FC (MLS), MNUFC2 (MLS NEXT Pro), and the MNUFC Academy (MLS NEXT). Allianz Field – constructed in 2019 in the Midway neighborhood of Saint Paul, Minnesota – is the home to Minnesota United games, and the club trains at the National Sports Center in Blaine, Minnesota. In 2025, MNUFC’s first team returns to the pitch for its ninth season in MLS.
