Grant interviews Andy Williams (at 42:48), Real Salt Lake's head scout and a former RSL midfield stalwart, about his courageous decision to become a whistleblower and tell The Athletic's Sam Stejskal about multiple instances of racism (including use of the . N-word) by RSL owner Dell Loy Hansen that Williams had witnessed over the years. Those details helped lead to Hansen's announcement last week that he would sell his ownership of Real Salt Lake, the NWSL's Utah Royals and the USL's Real Monarchs. 
Before that, Grant breaks down the soccer news with Chris Wittyngham, including Lionel Messi's dramatic decision to stay at Barcelona against his wishes, Chelsea's Kai Havertz signing, Man United's impending acquisition of Tobin Heath and Christen Press, the appeal of UEFA Nations League, and the way forward for Atlanta United (post-Pity Martínez, Frank de Boer and potentially Ezequiel Barco) and the New York Red Bulls (post-Chris Armas).
