Boston attorney Steve Gans may challenge Sunil Gulati for U.S. Soccer Presidency

Sunil Gulati has served three uncontested terms as the president of U.S. Soccer. But ahead of the 2018 election, when Gulati will have a chance to run for his fourth and final term, that could change.

Steve Gans, an attorney from Boston, recently announced his interest in serving as Gulati’s first challenger. "This is democracy," Gans told Soccer America. “For an organization this big, a $150 million organization, to never have a challenger, a fourth term without a challenger, is not good from a process perspective. For the good of the game, somebody should run. I think I should perhaps be that somebody.
