U.S. Soccer Foundation Statement on the Passing of Grant Wahl
The U.S. Soccer Foundation is devastated to learn of the passing of longtime Foundation friend and journalist Grant Wahl. His love for the game and belief that it could be used for good was evident in all his work. We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues. It was our honor to have known him, learned from him, and to have enjoyed his work. The world is darker without him in it, and soccer has lost an amazing member of our family.
