Chelsea star Christian Pulisic has labelled the controversy between former USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter and the Reyna family as "extremely childish" after finally speaking out.
The 2022 World Cup should have been an exciting occasion for the USMNT after missing out on the previous tournament, but it became dominated by an off-field spat between Berhalter and the Reyna family. Many were surprised to see Borussia Dortmund star Gio Reyna left out of the starting XI throughout the tournament, and it later transpired that it may have been due to off-field drama.
Tensions then led to an internal investigation by US Soccer, after Reyna's mother, Danielle, accused Berhalter of kicking his now wife Rosalind when they were teenagers. Berhalter's contract with the USMNT has since expired, but Pulisic has called the whole scenario "extremely childish."
