Local developer Ersal Ozdemir unveiled his plans Jan. 16 to launch the team in the North American Soccer League. The team is set to start play in 2014.
Team officials said they've received a $25 deposit toward each of the 1,500 season tickets.
Ozdemir has hired the former founding general manager of the MLS’s Chicago Fire, Peter Wilt, to lead the initiative and is looking for investors to defray start-up and operational costs.
More than 3,000 fans have cast votes to decide the team name by choosing from a list of four proposed selections or by submitting an original name. The four proposals are Indianapolis Athletic Club, Indianapolis Majestic, Indianapolis Speed and Indianapolis United.
