Following a decorated Major League Soccer career, Todd Dunivant joined Republic FC in 2018 as general manager, overseeing the club’s soccer operations including oversight of the club’s technical staff, scouting, recruitment, player contract negotiations and the youth development academy. In 2020, he was appointed Republic FC’s President in addition to his role as General Manager. As club president, Todd is responsible for leading the executive team, overseeing the club’s front office, and spearheading the club’s development including creating a transformative, downtown venue, as well as the club’s future in the topflight of American soccer.
Before joining Republic FC, Dunivant spearheaded the soccer operation for the 2017 NASL Champion San Francisco Deltas in the organization’s inaugural season.
Before joining the executive ranks of American soccer, Todd was a standout at Stanford University from 1999 to 2002, including back-to-back Final Four appearances in 2001 and 2002. In his senior season, he was the only player in the nation to be selected as a First Team All-American and First Team Academic All-American.
He was selected sixth overall in the 2003 MLS SuperDraft by the San Jose Earthquakes. In thirteen seasons, Todd appeared in over 300 matches for the Earthquakes, LA Galaxy, New York Red Bulls and Toronto FC, spending the bulk of his career with the Galaxy. He is one of the most decorated players in MLS history having won five MLS Cups, two Supporters’ Shields and a U.S. Open Cup trophy, as well as an MLS Best XI selection in 2011.
Off the field, his contributions to the game have been equally profound.
