Chicharito from MLS bubble: ‘I wouldn’t be here if I don’t feel safe’

Netflix. Call of Duty. FIFA 20. FaceTime with family.

Chicharito may be a household name, but the LA Galaxy forward told reporters his activities in his hotel room while preparing for the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando are as mundane as what the rest of us are doing throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

Chicharito opted to play in the tournament while his friend, compatriot and MLS rival Carlos Vela opted to sit out, both players’ wives currently pregnant. But sensitive to potential criticism for either player, the Galaxy star made it clear no decision was better than the other.
