Sacramento Republic of the USL Championship announced Tuesday morning that their long-planned soccer-specific stadium will seat more than 20,000 fans. The club first broke ground on the stadium in August 2025, but did not commit to an exact capacity. Their new stadium comes amid a wave of new arenas being built by USL Championship clubs ahead of a planned Division 1 league.
USL players will wear t-shirts calling for professional standards prior to U.S. Open Cup games Tuesday night, in a coordinated effort to put pressure on the U.S. Soccer amid tense negotiations with the league on a Collective Bargaining Agreement. The USLPA has been engaged in talks with the League office for months, and with no deal near, they have decided to take action.
The USL Championship is currently operating in the absence of a Collective Bargaining Agreement, but many around the league aren't optimistic that a decision will be reached soon.

GOAL reported the Mexican-born actor was on trial with USL Championship side El Paso Locomotive earlier this week, and could yet receive a contract. Fernandez played academy soccer in Mexico as a teenager.
