Yes — it's worth an English version. The strongest angle is not simply who Larry Berg is, but what his appointment signals for MLS after Don Garber.
Larry Berg has been a managing owner of LAFC since 2016 and is a familiar figure to those who follow the Los Angeles club closely. His appointment marks a generational shift for MLS as the league enters the post-2026 World Cup era.
Berg grew up in the Philadelphia area and has played football since he was eight. He earned an economics degree from the Wharton School before completing an MBA at Harvard Business School.
He spent more than three decades at Apollo Global Management, where he was a senior private equity partner. Berg retired from the firm in 2022 and later joined 26North, the investment company founded by Josh Harris.
His name will already be familiar to longtime LAFC observers.
