**Moises Replaces Frenkel as New Head of MLS International** The Major League Soccer (MLS) has made significant changes in its leadership structure, with Moises Rebecchi taking over from former president and CEO Michael Frenkel as the new head of MLS International. Rebecchi, who was previously the vice president of global business for the club, has been appointed to lead the organization's international efforts. His appointment comes at a time when MLS is expanding its reach globally and seeking to build stronger ties with other soccer organizations. In his new role, Rebecchi will focus on developing partnerships with international football associations, promoting MLS to foreign audiences, and enhancing the league's presence in countries outside North America. He will also work closely with the MLS Board of Governors and other stakeholders to ensure that the league continues to evolve and adapt to changing market conditions. Frenkel, who served as the president and CEO of MLS from 2011 until his resignation in 2022, had played a crucial role in building the league's reputation and success. Under his leadership, MLS expanded its footprint to include teams in Europe, Asia, and South America, and introduced new technologies and strategies to enhance player development and fan engagement. While Frenkel stepped down from his position, he remains involved in the sport through his work with the United States Soccer Federation (US Soccer). He has been a vocal advocate for fair play, racial equality, and women's soccer, and he continues to be respected within the industry. Rebecchi's appointment marks the beginning of a new chapter in MLS' history, as the league looks to continue growing and evolving while maintaining its commitment to excellence and innovation. As he takes on this new challenge, Rebecchi will face many opportunities to make a lasting impact on the sport and help build a stronger, more connected future for MLS around the world. |
