Ibrahimovic, Ted Lasso, Messi at Miami, Welcome to Wrexham, World Cup 2026 - and more? So many things contributing to the rise of popularity of soccer in America. I’m here for it. I want to see an American soccer team with the talent and athleticism of the NBA All Star team. 🙏

I think one of the things that hold soccer back in America is their Youth Development. The current cost for academies are through roof, which scare off a lot people from playing. But I have a good feeling for the IS in the future

Don't forget the FIFA franchise. Played a huge part in Americans knowing the teams/players. This infographic is from 10 years ago...so you can imagine the growth since

If I had like $100M I'd invest in an MLS team. IMO a great 5-10yr potential

I think what's missing that you see in football-first countries (most of Europe and south america) is kids kicking a ball at any field they find. Football is a grassroots kind of sport, vs in the US it seems to have been adopted as a biz/very officially.

I do too! But, I may have an unpopular opinion on this: You won't see the USA in a Men's World Cup final in your lifetime.
