Manchester United May Play At Wrigley Field This Summer

Wrigley Field hasn’t hosted a soccer match since 1984, but it has played host to sports other than baseball as recently as November when Northwestern and the University of Illinois played a football game there. Hot Time In Old Town’s Tweed Thornton points out that there were plenty of people who criticized that game, but thinks soccer is destined to be played at Wrigley sooner or later.

Tweed points to the flexible nature of soccer fields and the general idea of Wrigley being a nice stage for a match as reasons for this belief. The most compelling reason he points out, though, is Wrigley’s owners.
