Mario Gomez predicts soccer as USA's top sports in 'five to 10 years'

Former Germany international striker and current Red Bull Soccer technical director Mario Gomez believes there will be plenty of growth within the United States soccer scene in the coming years. Gomez, who oversees development at multiple Red Bull owned clubs across the world, has his eyes across the world looking for the latest talent to bring to clubs in Brazil, Germany, and the USA. Speaking to a group of journalists at the team's training facility in Leipzig, Gomez praised the potential for American soccer in the next decade. 'I'm super excited about football there the next couple, probably 5-10 years, because let's be honest, soccer in the US, it's not number one, not at all,' Gomez said.
