Federal immigration raids put ‘fear’ into many Minnesota United players

Federal immigration raids have instilled fear among Minnesota United players, impacting their ability to recruit new talent. The Loons' diverse roster, which includes players from Argentina, Panama, Germany, Colombia, New Zealand, Sierra Leone, South Africa, and Australia, has been particularly affected. Players like Joaquin Pereyra and Michael Boxall have expressed concerns about safety and the potential for mistreatment by immigration authorities. The current climate has led to international players declining contracts with MNUFC, such as Slovenian midfielder Tomi Horvat and Dutch defender Cherrion Valerius. The Loons are now reconsidering their recruitment plans, possibly waiting until the summer transfer window to see if the situation improves.

US World Cup boycotts grow as Trump threatens Mexico

The US World Cup Boycotts Grow as Trump Threatens Mexico - Newsweek. Calls are growing on social media for international soccer fans to boycott the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is being hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico. This is due to growing unrest, immigration fears, and the Trump administration's moves on the international stage. The Trump administration launched a military raid in Venezuela to capture President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. In recent days, the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis by an ICE officer has further inflamed tensions. Internationally, the White House has repeatedly stated its desire for the U.S. to take control of Greenland, a Danish-owned, self-governed territory.
