Episode 595 - The AFTN Soccer Show (If Words Could Make Wishes Come True with special guest Axel Schuster)

We’re back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and Canadian soccer chat. We kick off our first show of the new year with our annual offseason interview with Whitecaps CEO and Sporting Director Axel Schuster. We talk with Axel about the highs and lows of last season, building on those in 2024 and taking the next step, and discuss how the club gets there. We touch on the Andres Cubas transfer rumours, Ryan Gauld extension talks, is a return possible for Richie Laryea, and how did the signing of Damir Kreilach come about, plus much more in a 37 minute chat. It's been a busy MLS offseason so far and we look at some of the bigger and wilder stories affecting the Canadian teams, Canadian players, and the 'Caps Western Conference rivals. Plus we kick off our Whitecaps 50th anniversary celebrations and party like it's 1974, and introduce our new Album of the Month feature.
