Listen Later

For more than three decades, Andres has been at the center of soccer’s rise in the United States. As the founder and daily host of Fútbol de Primera—the country’s longest-running syndicated soccer radio network—he’s helped shape how millions of fans experience the game. With exclusive U.S. radio rights to all FIFA tournaments, his network will broadcast this summer’s Concacaf Gold Cup, adding another milestone to its historic run.Beyond the mic, Andres is stepping into a new era: in 2025, he’ll serve as an English-language broadcaster for Turner Sports at the FIFA Club World Cup—marking a high-profile shift from decades of iconic Spanish-language calls on Telemundo and Univision. From the evolution of fútbol’s U.S. footprint to what’s next as the country prepares to host the 2026 Men’s World Cup and the expected 2031 Women’s World Cup, Andres offers an unmatched perspective on the game’s past, present, and future.Chapters01:00 – Countdown to the 2026 World Cup02:53 – The Business of Soccer Media06:02 – Navigating Dual Careers in Sports Media12:01 – Trends in Global Soccer23:55 – The Future of Soccer Formats
