FROM
THE
FIELD
with Chris Klein
Chris Klein is a former American soccer player who spent
thirteen seasons in Major League Soccer and earned
twenty three caps with the United States men’s national
soccer team. He is president of the LA Galaxy.
In 2014, the LA Galaxy made history,
becoming the first Major League Soccer
team to win five MLS Cup trophies – First
to Five! It was a pivotal victory for the team,
a victory that we share with everyone
who helped to make it possible: trainers,
coaches, support staff, family and fans, and
of course, Herbalife, the Galaxy’s Official
Nutrition Partner and Presenting Sponsor
through the 2022 MLS season.
I’ve experienced soccer from all sides, as a fan,
as a professional player and as president of the
LA Galaxy. In that time, I’ve come to realize that
success is not a one-man show; success comes
from surrounding yourself with the best people,
both on and off the field. And in that respect,
I am proud to say that Herbalife has been an
amazing partner to the
LA Galaxy.
MLS
teams and
players are finally
getting the recognition they
deserve across North America and
the world, and a big part of that is thanks to
the success of the Galaxy. But that wasn’t always
the case, we had to start from the bottom and work our way
up. Now, we have a record five MLS Cups, Bruce Arena is the
most successful coach in MLS postseason history and Landon
Donovan capped his career as the most accomplished player
in MLS history. From early on, Herbalife believed in the global
appeal of soccer – they believed in the Galaxy – and I can’t tell
you how gratifying that kind of support feels.
As any pro athlete will tell you, training is only half
the equation to achieving victory; you also need the
best nutrition to compete at a world-class level. Safe,
effective, high-quality nutrition – that’s what I
want for our players, and thanks to our
partnership with Herbalife, I’m
confident that’s exactly
what they are
getting.
CHRIS
KLEIN,
LA Galaxy
President
