The FIFA World Cup is going on now across North America! There aren't any transgender footballers currently playing in the tournament, but there have been several trans athletes who have competed or played in the playoffs to be included in FIFA! You may not know their names, but Kumi Yokoyama, Quinn, and Jaiyah Saelua are the three trans soccer players we're covering today.
