In an optimistic declaration, FIFA President Gianni Infantino expressed his belief that soccer will soon become the premier sport in the United States. "It will be top, top, top. One of the top leagues in the world, for sure," he stated, emphasizing the potential growth of the sport in the American market. Infantino's comments come at a time when soccer is gaining traction, particularly with the increasing popularity of Major League Soccer (MLS) and the success of the U.S. Women's National Team.
Infantino highlighted the importance of implementing promotion and relegation systems, which are standard in many global soccer leagues. He argued that such changes would enhance the competitive nature of the sport and attract more fans. As soccer continues to evolve in the U.S., Infantino's vision suggests a bright future where the sport could rival traditional American favorites like football and basketball. His remarks are a rallying call for stakeholders to invest in the growth and development of soccer across the nation.
