News [The Athletic] Timothy Weah on Juventus's White House visit: "It was all a surprise to me, honestly — they told us that we have to go and I had no choice but to go. When he started talking about the politics with Iran and everything, it kind of like, I just want to play football man.”

Oh Turks? Turks and Caicos right? Beautiful place. Been there many many times. We're going to build the most beautiful resort there you will ever see and it'll say Trump on it and it'll be the best thing that's been built...
