Following his offseason move to Inter Miami to become the Sporting Director and Chief Soccer Officer, former Sounders FC Vice President of Soccer & Sporting Director Chris Henderson spoke with Matt Pentz of The Athletic about his decision to take on a new challenge in South Florida.
One of the earliest technical staff employees of the Sounders in MLS, Henderson spent 13 years with his hometown club, playing a pivotal role as the organization secured seven major trophies. Throughout his tenure in the Pacific Northwest, he cemented himself as one of the sharpest Front Office employees in MLS, bringing in all-league talents like Obafemi Martins, Nicolás Lodeiro and Raúl Ruidíaz.
