Real Sociedad manager Pellegrino Matarazzo on European glory, the USMNT, and America’s football future: Men in Blazers 05/22/26

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.
