Seattle Sounders FC General Manager Adrian Hanauer on the CONCACAF Champions League and its relationship with Major League Soccer

“To me and the organization, its huge. I’m a huge fan of this tournament. I think that it is our opportunity as a league to showcase ourselves regionally and internationally. We as an organization feel like we’re giving it the right amount of respect and attention. I would hope that our partners in the league do the same.”

“I think we as a league can do more to continue to promote the tournament and make it an important part of the soccer calendar. Just to give an example of that, if we as a league decide the CONCACAF Champions League is important and we’re playing eight extra games jammed into the middle of the summer, then perhaps the Champions League teams in MLS need some sort of support league-wide, whether that means cap space, allocation money, roster space. There are some things that our league can do to show that it’s important to us.”

“I sit on the competition committee, those are just discussions that are ongoing. I hope to be able to push that as we move forward here. It may not ever help us but I think it’s important for the league.”
