"U.S. Soccer Approves President's Salary for the First Time"
The U.S. Soccer Federation's National Council voted to make the position of USSF president a paid role for the first time, with a stipend of $150,000 per year, in a move aimed at expanding the pool of candidates and acknowledging the demands of the role, particularly with the 2026 men's World Cup on the horizon. The decision, passed with 80.88% support, faced opposition over concerns about the legality of paying the president of a nonprofit organization and the allocation of responsibilities. Additionally, Nathán Goldberg Crenier was elected as USSF vice-president for a four-year term.
