REPORT: New York City FC soon to announce construction of training facility in Orangetown, NY

Last week, City Football Group CEO Khaldoon Al-Mubarak made a rare trip to the Five Boroughs to take stock of his neat little stateside investment, the soccering franchise known as New York City FC. What was the big man doing in the City? The Boys in Blue were about to play a road date in Houston; he certainly wasn't here for the chicken buckets.

Today, thanks to a report from our friend Christian Araos at Empire of Soccer, we have a far clearer picture of why Al-Mubarak decided to roll through: the word is that NYCFC is ramping up to announce an imminent plan to construct a training facility in Orangetown, New York, just a quick drive from the City over in Rockland County.
