With the U.S. Soccer Federation’s presidential election a month away, Eric Wynalda has approached Kyle Martino about forging an alliance to help ensure that one of the candidates is elected, multiple sources told the Insider.
In separate interviews Friday, both confirmed they have spoken to one another recently but both declined to offer details.
Wynalda, a Hall of Fame forward who has gained support by promising major changes in the way the sport’s governing body operates, said he did not want to comment about any possible deals with any of the eight candidates.
