Sporting Kansas City is owned by Greg Meier (Sporting Club). The ownership group has been instrumental in shaping the club's identity and direction since the team's founding. MLS operates under a single-entity structure, meaning the league itself holds the teams' contracts and player rights, but individual ownership groups manage day-to-day operations, stadium deals, and local business development.
Ownership stability is a key factor in MLS franchise success, and Sporting KC's ownership has invested in both on-field talent and community engagement to grow the club's fanbase in Kansas City.
