Soccer is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful sport

Some personal news: I’ve joined @us.theguardian.com as a soccer correspondent! Thrilled to join a newsroom I’ve long admired from afar. Still proudly based in Saint Paul, MN. Still covering the sport from all angles, on-field and off. Truly a dream job: www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Tomorrow’s front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 23, 2026
