Vacation Time

I'm out through June 17, but there's a lot of good stuff coming on GrantWahl.com

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be on vacation from tonight through June 17. I’m really fired up for it—it’s the first real vacation my wife and I have taken since before the pandemic—and I wanted to thank you for your continued support. GrantWahl.com just passed 2,000 paid subscribers, and I’ve had to adjust my end-of-year goals higher than originally anticipated as we get closer to the men’s World Cup.

That couldn’t have happened without you, and you’re helping make sure this site is sustainable for the future. If you like the coverage here, consider recommending it to your friends. Word of mouth is a big part of how we continue to grow.

Here are some things to look forward to when I get back from vacation:

• Continued coverage of the bid cities to host games for World Cup 2026, the official announcement of which comes on June 16.

• A magazine-style story on my trip to Qatar to speak with migrant workers at the 14 FIFA hotels in the main parts of Doha.

• On-site coverage of the CONCACAF qualifying tournament for the women’s World Cup and 2024 Olympics.

• The usual two interviews a week, Friday newsletters/mailbags, instant reactions to big games and much more.

Speak to you soon!
