France defender Raphaël Varane is retiring from international football, ending a 10-year career with Les Bleus in which he won the World Cup in 2018 and was a runner-up four years later.
The 29-year-old, who has 93 caps after making his debut in 2013, and also helped Didier Deschamps's side win the UEFA Nations League in the 2020-21 season.
After playing the 2021 tournament in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2022 competition with a weakened field, the SheBelieves Cup returns in a big way this February with the USWNT playing matches against Canada, Japan and Brazil ahead of this summer's main event, the 2023 FIFA World Cup.
United States women’s national team head coach Vlatko Andonovski revealed the 2023 USWNT SheBelieves Cup roster on Wednesday. This tournament will be the team’s biggest test ahead of the 2023 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
The latest USWNT roster has three changes from the January roster that played two friendlies in New Zealand. Hailie Mace and Sam Coffey were both dropped, and Megan Rapinoe returns after missing the last two games with an ankle injury.
As our modern age moves ever closer to a world engulfed in technology, it is good to know that video games are keeping pace. After this weekend’s Ligue 1 match between PSG and Stade de Reims, it seems that Football Manager can now be seen as a legitimate step into the coaching world. Just look at Reims coach Will Still.
I’ve only known about 30-year-old Reims boss Will Still for 24 hours and I’m already obsessed with his career arc.
Leeds United have signed United States midfielder Weston McKennie on loan until the end of the season from Juventus, the Premier League club said on Monday.
The 24-year-old has made nearly 100 appearances for the Serie A team since joining in 2020, scoring 13 goals and providing five assists. He has won the 2020 Italian Super Cup and 2021 Coppa Italia with Juve.
The USMNT ended its January camp with a high-energy, low-quality 0-0 draw against Colombia on Saturday night. It was a match that suited Kellyn Acosta's ability to be everywhere all at once in midfield, and it provided us with a glimpse into the shattered goalscoring confidence of Matthew Hoppe. Time is still on the 21-year-old's side.
Top soccer reporter Fabrizio Romano confirmed on Saturday that Weston McKennie will leave Juventus for the rest of the season to join Leeds United on loan. The move does include the option for Leeds to buy McKennie permanently.
The loan move cost Leeds roughly $1.3 million and the set option to buy price is $35.8 million.
Former U.S. men's national team star Claudio Reyna resigned his post as the sporting director of Austin FC on Thursday. He will remain with the club as a technical adviser.

SIn embargo, un par de informaciones provenientes desde la FMF ha hecho que el ánimo de la mayoría de los simpatizantes ande por el suelo.
¿Cuáles son esas informaciones?
Gerardo Martino vivió uno de los procesos más agobiantes en la historia reciente de un técnico de la selección mexicana.
La lista de jugadores para sus convocatorias, los vetos a estrellas como Chicharito Hernández y su pobre papel en el Mundial de Catar — el peor de México en 40 años — finalmente terminaron por sentenciar su frustrante etapa al frente del Tri.
