GOAL previews the biggest storylines of U.S. internationals playing abroad this weekend.

U.S. Soccer announced on Thursday that MLS commissioner Don Garber will serve as chair of the Soccer Forward Foundation, taking on a role that will center on expanding access and increasing investment in soccer in America. The announcement comes as Garber prepares to step away from his role as commissioner after 27 years leading MLS.

Haji Wright has suffered an unfortunate injury, delaying the start of his Premier League dream at Coventry, with Clinton Morrison telling GOAL what the USMNT star must do once back to full fitness. The versatile frontman represented his country at the 2026 World Cup, gracing a major tournament on home soil, but is currently ruled out of action for several weeks.

Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has sensationally claimed that Spurs should be retrospective winners of the 2016-17 Premier League title. The Argentine argues that Chelsea’s admission of financial rule breaches means the trophy belongs in north London. Though the Blues were fined £10 million by the FA earlier this summer, Pochettino believes a lack of sporting sanctions is a betrayal of fair play.
