Hello! I’m Alexander Abnos. I’m a managing editor for North American soccer coverage at The Athletic. I love soccer, and I love editing, so it works for me. You should subscribe

I’ve been covering American soccer since 2004. Before The Athletic I did it at Sports Illustrated. Before Sports Illustrated I did it for a whole lot of sites and blogs which no longer exist.

In non-soccer work, I have been a producer at WNYC and a senior podcast producer at Macmillan. I’m always available for freelance opportunities or consulting. 

I play drums for Secret CitiesMoon Revenge and myself.

Kansas City is my hometown. The George Washington University (‘09) and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism (‘12) are my alma maters. I live in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. 

If you want to know more, or talk soccer, or literally anything else, please do drop me a line: aabnos [at] theathletic.com
