Gotham FC Secures $100m Investment

Gotham FC has raised $100 million to expand its football operations, infrastructure and commercial business, bringing seven new minority investors into the NWSL club.

The investment was led by the Moelis family, with participation from existing backers including lead owner Carolyn Tisch Blodgett's Next 3 Ventures and Jennifer Mackesy. The new investors include figures from finance, real estate and public service.

Gotham plans to establish its first dedicated training facility in Whippany, New Jersey, and move home matches to Etihad Park in Queens in 2028. The club has also launched a youth-to-professional player development pathway.

Average home attendance has risen 73% since 2023. A crowd of 42,175 attended the club's Queens Classic at Citi Field, while commercial partnerships have more than quadrupled since 2024.

Gotham has won five major trophies over the past three seasons, including two NWSL championships and the 2026 NWSL Shield. The club is also qualified for the inaugural FIFA Women's Club World Cup in 2028.
