Real Sociedad manager Pellegrino Matarazzo on European glory, the USMNT, and America's football future: Men in Blazers 05/22/26
About this episode
Rog is joined by Real Sociedad manager and Fair Lawn, NJ native Pellegrino Matarazzo to discuss his rise from the Columbia University soccer team all the way to lifting a Copa del Rey title at Real Sociedad. Pellegrino dives into what qualities make for a great football manager and how a road sign in Newark, NJ still inspires him when he's back in Spain. Plus, Pellegrino breaks down the make up of this U.S. Men's National Team squad and what a deep run in this year's World Cup would mean for future generations of Americans.
