The Leceister-born football commentator; Peter Drury will be leaving European football for the US any moment from now.



Drury has secured a huge offer from the NPL and he is moving to America soon, He is positioned to replace Alto.

Drury who had been the voice of the Seattle Sounders in MLS previously, took the reigns from day one of NBC’s coverage in 2013, and has become the iconic and instantly recognizable voice of the best league in the world (and also of Ted Lasso’s fake matches).

But now, he’s moving on, as per various reports including the Daily Mail, World Soccer Talk, and the AP. It sounds like he will be going back full-time to MLS with the Chicago Fire, in addition to other unspecified projects.

Meanwhile, NBC have already identified a replacement, and he may even be an upgrade. None other than Peter Drury’s set to take over (sans usual cohort Jim Beglin, thankfully) when the new season (and NBC’s new deal with the Premier League) start in August.
