Add Indianapolis to the list of cities looking to join Major League Soccer.
Brian Straus of Sports Illustrated reported Monday the North American Soccer League's Indy Eleven "are pursuing one of the four MLS expansion openings." The team's president, Jeff Belskus, confirmed the news.
The expansion deadline is Tuesday, and Straus wrote Eleven owner Ersal Ozdemir will deliver the team's application by hand to the league office.
Straus noted Indianapolis is the 12th city to announce its intention to take part in the expansion, which will bring the league's membership to 28 teams if Los Angeles FC and David Beckham's Miami project are included:
