The Guardian FootballWatching Cavan Sullivan, excitement is tempered by memories of hypetrains past
The 16-year-old Union star isn’t the first wunderkind to be feted by the American soccersphere The trouble with trying not to hype up Cavan Sullivan is that he keeps on doing cool stuff. Like this past weekend, when he scampers along on a Philadelphia Union breakaway, loses his man by stopping so suddenly it’s as if he’s pulled a ripcord, back-heels the cutback behind his standing leg, watches it slowly kiss off the far post and in, and celebrated the goal by bowing and doffing an imaginary top hat to the crowd. Like when he doubles the score by setting up an attack and finishing it himself with a left-footed lash through the goalkeeper’s legs form an acute angle.

The Guardian FootballHow Promise David emerged from Maltese shadows into the Premier League
Former teammates and coaches rave about Brighton’s summer signing, who impressed with Canada at the World Cup Promise David had a five‑year plan.

He was 22 and already a football nomad. He had been cut from his hometown club’s academy. Passed over by NCAA college programs. Relegated to the reserve squad of almost every club for which he played. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballThe 2026 World Cup is over, but the onslaught of soccer relentlessly rolls on | Leander Schaerlaeckens
The supply of soccer seems to be enormously exceeding demand. It’s made the sport feel utterly overwhelming On Friday, the Scottish Premiership kicks off its 2026-27 season. The following Friday, the Dutch Eredivisie begins anew, and England’s Carabao Cup sets off on its ponderous journey. The various European club competitions have already begun their qualifying rounds – and did so on 7 July, in the case of the Champions and Conference Leagues. Liga MX is two rounds into its Apertura season; Major League Soccer resumed its regular season on 16 July. Other soccer is available elsewhere and at other times. It has been only a week since the World Cup ended.
