""I am honored to join New York City FC as Sporting Director and add to the success of this flagship Club and City Football Group," Dunivant said in a statement. "Since joining MLS, New York City FC have quickly established themselves as a perennial winner. From the Club's on-the-field results to building our future home in Etihad Park, New York City FC are a world-class organization with limitless potential and an unmatched fan base -- whom I can't wait to meet.""
"Dunivant added: "The Club's strong foundation is something we will build upon from day one, and I'm eager to join the incredible players, coaches, and staff that already exist at New York City FC. The future has never been brighter for the Club and Major League Soccer, and I look forward to accomplishing big things together in 2026 and beyond.""
Todd Dunivant has been appointed sporting director of New York City FC, succeeding David Lee. Dunivant spent eight seasons as general manager of Sacramento Republic FC, guiding consistent USL Championship playoff appearances and a run to the 2022 U.S. Open Cup final. A prior effort to move Sacramento into MLS collapsed in 2021 when lead investor Ron Burkle withdrew due to rising stadium costs. Dunivant joins New York City FC with access to City Football Group resources and plans to build on the club's run to the Eastern Conference final and pursue success in 2026 and beyond.
