ESPN's Sam Borden chats with U.S. Soccer president Sunil Gulati about the U.S.-led 2026 World Cup bid.

Boston attorney Steve Gans is considering whether to challenge Sunil Gulati as the president of U.S. Soccer.

Gulati has never been opposed in three elections that have occurred every four years since 2006. He is yet to confirm if he will run for a fourth term in 2018, which would be his last under new term limits he supported.

And Gans told Soccer America that he believes the U.S. men's national "has gone backwards" under Gulati and that he found it odd that no one has ever challenged the economics professor throughout his decade-long time in charge.
