The team is set to build a 22,000 seat stadium near the L.A. Memorial Coliseum, but the facility won't be completed in time for the team to begin play in 2017.
LAFC will enter MLS a year later than the 2017 start date because of delays building a stadium, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.
The team will instead likely start in 2018, the report indicated, because of expected delays building a facility at the current site of the Sports Arena, near the L.A. Memorial Coliseum.
The newspaper reports the project will include a 22,000-seat stadium as the centerpiece of a $250 million project that also will include a conference center and museum, but organizers won't be able to have the facility ready by 2017 because of an addendum needed to an environmental impact report.
