Imagine a world where the USMNT and El Tri regularly face Jude Bellingham’s England or Mbappé’s France to prepare for the 2030 World Cup.
The international soccer calendar is broken: CONCACAF powerhouses have struggled for years to find meaningful opposition, but a potential alliance with UEFA could make our matches matter again. Reports in the British media suggest a high-stakes Nations League format could begin as early as 2028, following Gianni Infantino's failed attempt to sell off FIFA’s World Cup rights, setting the stage for Mauricio Pochettino and Rafa Márquez to regularly face European giants such as Germany or Spain.
Sebastian Salazar and Herculez Gomez break down how feasible this partnership is and analyze whether it is a legitimate pathway to global respect, a way to get rid of the "Molero" friendly problem, or a purely political move against Gianni Infantino. Are the U.S. and Mexico players finally ready to test their skills against the true royalty of world football? Could a tournament merger finally give El Tri players the platform they need to earn global trust?
