New York City Football Club (often referred to as NYCFC) is an American professional soccer club based in New York City. The club competes in Major League Soccer (MLS) as a member of the Eastern Conference. New York City FC is owned by City Football Group, a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi United Group, with minority stakes held by Yankee Global Enterprises (owners of the New York Yankees) and investor Marcelo Claure.

New York City FC played its first league game in the 2015 MLS season, as the twentieth expansion team of the league; it is the first franchise based in the city, and the second in the New York metropolitan area, after the New York Red Bulls, with whom they contest the Hudson River Derby. Since 2015, the club has primarily played its home games at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Beginning in the 2022 season, NYCFC has played at least six of its seventeen home matches at Citi Field in Queens, across the street from its future home, Etihad Park, which is scheduled to open in 2027.

Several alternative venues have been used when Yankee Stadium and Citi Field are unavailable, including Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, New Jersey.

After five years of performing well in the regular season but falling short in the playoffs, New York City FC won the 2021 MLS Cup. The club then won its first international trophy when they defeated Atlas at the 2022 Campeones Cup, becoming the first New York–based club to win an international trophy.

New York City FC is the fifteenth best attended club in the league, and the fifth most valuable, worth $1 billion, based on attendance data from the 2024 regular season and valuations by Sportico.
