In this episode of The Technical Area, Andrea Lombardo and Luca Forno are joined by Alecko Eskandarian — former MLS Cup Champion 🏆, MLS Cup MVP ⭐, and current Vice President of Player Relations & Development at Major League Soccer ⚽.
Alecko shares his journey from growing up in a legendary soccer household — his father, Andranik Eskandarian, played alongside Pelé and Beckenbauer at the New York Cosmos 🇺🇸 — to making his own mark as a #1 draft pick and key figure in D.C. United’s 2004 MLS Cup run.

- Playing alongside legends like David Beckham 🌟
- The emotional toll of career-ending injuries 🧠
- His transition from player to exec 👔
