- More U.S. youth clubs, including Dempsey’s, join compensation fight
- FIFA responds in U.S. youth club compensation case vs. USSF, MLS
- U.S. Soccer calls meeting with youth clubs over compensation dispute
- Youth clubs file for compensation, solidarity on USMNT stars’ transfers
- U.S. Soccer answers to Senate over youth club compensation dispute
