YOUNG AMERICANS
The USMNT was by far the youngest team to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, garnering valuable experience going through the rigors of World Cup qualifying. Through 14 qualifiers, the USA Starting XI came in at an average of 23.82, almost two years younger than the next closest team, Ghana at 25.67. Together, the other 31 participating teams averaged a Starting XI age of 27.5 through qualifying, nearly four full years older than the U.S. Sources say this is one of the youngest, but most talented teams the U.S. has ever fielded. While they may not win the world cup this year, they may garner the experience needed to make a serious run on home soil in the year 2026 when the World Cup comes back to North America.

Holy shit. These soccer players get insane money.

Saudi club Al-Hilal has offered a world-record package for Kylian Mbappé:

1 year, $1.1 billion.

• $332M transfer fee to PSG
• $776M salary for 1 season

The deal would allow him to depart for free next summer to Real Madrid.

This man is getting 50% more than Patrick Mahomes for one season compared to what Patrick would get for his over 10 year deal.

I am all in favor of Mahomes taking up soccer.
