Landon Donovan will return to professional soccer this summer, joining Sneaky FC for $1 million winner-take-all The Soccer Tournament (TST) in North Carolina. The 44-year-old USMNT icon, last seen in 2019 with the San Diego Sockers, will compete in the 7-on-7 event from May 27 to June 1 at WakeMed Soccer Park. Donovan, ranked second in US appearances (157) and tied for most goals (57), expressed excitement about the unique format and competing alongside notable players.
TST, now in its fourth year, has previously featured stars like Sergio Agüero and Jermaine Jones, alongside former USWNT legends Hope Solo and Carli Lloyd. Donovan's participation adds significant star power to the event, marking a high-profile comeback for the veteran attacker.
