On the latest episode of the Urban Pitch Podcast, we discuss Neymar’s return to Santos, Naomi Girma’s million-dollar move, and the dangerous expansion of major football tournaments across the globe.
The winter transfer window has heated up, with big moves on both the men’s and women’s side of things. After an injury-filled spell at Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, Neymar is making his return to Brazil and his childhood club, Santos. Elsewhere, Naomi Girma became the first million-dollar transfer in women’s soccer, joining Chelsea and bolstering a super-team that also features fellow United States women’s national team stars Catarina Macario and Mia Fishel.
We get into all of this and more on the latest Urban Pitch Podcast episode, in addition to discussing the jam-packed league phase of the Champions League, Cobi Jones’ statue for LA Galaxy, and more moves across the world of football.
