#Crew96 wanted to redo Nancy contract and make him the highest paid coach in #MLS. But Nancy wanted to keep Euro options open, as noted by @brimackay15.bsky.social. Nancy has returned from Europe I’m told. All coaches are off on a break. thedisrespected.com

What a message from both sets of players to start the USL Championship Final, wearing t-shirts that say:

"USL HQ: PRO REL? TRY PRO STANDARDS FIRST" Major statement made from the USL Players Association.

USL players have been collective bargaining for over a year and their ask is for owners to simply support professional standards like QoL increases and year round healthcare.

How can ownership say these negotiations are occurring in good faith while performing stunts like this?
This post by the USLPA needs to be seen and read.

The league withheld the materials from the USL Championship trophy celebration in retaliation for the players walking out in their USLPA shirts along with cutting out broadcast angles with that message.

"Nancy wanted to go to Europe if/when opportunity was right [and] in MLS offseason to make sure #crew96 had best chance to replace him."

Based on what we've seen from Issa Tall, Nancy would've had to have let him know he was leaving at least 12-18 months in advance in order to replace him.
As part of Wilfried Nancy’s last contract extension with Columbus Crew, there was understanding this day may come.

Nancy wanted to go to Europe if/when opportunity was right. He also wanted to do so in MLS offseason to make sure Columbus had best chance to replace him
Sources: Celtic finalizing deal to name Wilfried Nancy their next manager.

Columbus Crew will get compensation. Now, Crew need to find new head coach.
