U.S. Soccer Star Dishes On 'Weird' Oval Office Moment With Donald Trump
HuffPost
“I was caught by surprise," said Juventus player Timothy Weah.
U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team star Timothy Weah has opened up about what he described as the “weird” experience of standing behind Donald Trump in the Oval Office while the president fielded questions on the Iran-Israel war and attacked the idea of transgender women competing in women’s sports.
Weah was at the White House with his Juventus teammates on Wednesday as part of a promotional event for the FIFA Club World Cup, ahead of the Italian side’s 5-0 victory over the United Arab Emirates’ Al-Ain FC.

Weah, the son of former Liberian soccer star-turned-former president George Weah, later told reporters that the players had been made to attend the event.
