Charlotte FC’s one-year anniversary is almost here.
There is still more to come from the Major League Soccer club, which takes the pitch in 2022. Sources confirm Nick Kelly will be named president after six years with Anheuser-Busch InBev. Kelly’s most recent position was vice president for partnerships, beer culture and community. He is also familiar with the Charlotte area, spending 2011-14 in Charlotte with NASCAR. There will be plenty of time to talk about Kelly. For now, travel back in time to a rainy Tuesday morning in December 2019.
