Jozy Altidore is an American soccer player known for his contributions to the U.S. Men's National Team and his impact in Major League Soccer. Altidore began his professional career at age 16 with the New York Red Bulls, scoring four goals in five starts and becoming the youngest player to appear and score in an MLS playoff game. His early achievements in MLS led to a transfer to Villarreal in Spain's La Liga for a record outgoing fee from MLS at the time. Altidore became the first American to score in La Liga, with a goal against Athletic Bilbao. He also played for Hull City and Bursaspor on loan before joining AZ Alkmaar in the Dutch Eredivisie, where he scored 51 goals in 93 appearances and helped the club win the KNVB Beker. Altidore set a record for most goals by an American in a European club season, surpassing Clint Dempsey with his 24th goal. He later played for Sunderland in the English Premier League before returning to MLS with Toronto FC, where he contributed to the club's Supporters' Shield and MLS Cup titles and earned MLS Cup MVP honors.
Internationally, Altidore earned 115 senior caps and scored 42 goals for the United States, ranking third in program history. He represented the U.S. in two FIFA World Cups, four CONCACAF Gold Cups, and over 40 World Cup Qualifiers. Altidore also played for the United States U-17, U-20, and U-23 teams in major international tournaments, including the FIFA U-17 World Championship, FIFA U-20 World Cup, and the Beijing Olympics.
After his professional soccer career, Altidore pursued entrepreneurship and humanitarian work. He acquired minority ownership stakes in the Buffalo Bills and Bay FC and launched Sogility, a tech-driven soccer training platform. Altidore was named a High-Level Supporter by the World Food Programme, raising awareness and funds for emergency food assistance and nutrition programs, including initiatives in Haiti. He has supported education and health programs in Haiti, contributed to building a school and soccer field, and participated in hurricane relief efforts.
