"We extend our congratulations to Larry Berg on his appointment as Commissioner of Major League Soccer. Since the earliest days of LAFC, building this club alongside Larry has been a privilege. He has been a pivotal partner to us both, deeply influencing the trajectory of our club and the development of the broader soccer landscape in North America. His strategic foresight, from the vision behind BMO Stadium to the cultivation of a championship-caliber culture, has been fundamental to our identity. While his absence from our daily operations will be widely felt, the foundation we built together ensures continued success and seamless continuity for LAFC. We remain fully committed to driving the club’s future alongside our team led by Larry Freedman and John Thorrington.
We are immensely proud to see Larry step into this role. We have no doubt that the same leadership, integrity, and passion for community that defined his decade at LAFC will serve as a powerful catalyst for MLS as it enters its next chapter of global growth."
