The United Soccer League (USL) announced Thursday that it has awarded a USL Championship franchise in San Diego to Sacramento Republic FC co-founder and former president Warren Smith. And after a glittering playing career, Donovan will be joining Smith and the new San Diego team as Executive VP for Soccer Operations.
