Luigi Mangione<\/strong>‘s cousin is heading to Brooklyn — not for visitation at the Metropolitan Detention Center … but to play professional soccer.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The USL’s Brooklyn FC announced the interesting signing on Wednesday … saying 24-year-old Peter Mangione<\/strong> is joining the squad.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The team said it witnessed Mangione build his resume at Penn State, where he scored 31 goals and became a two-time Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

He also played a key role with the MLS Next Pro’s FC Cincinnati 2 last year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

“He brings a balanced midfield profile to Brooklyn with the engine to cover ground,” the team said, “and the end product to impact matches in the final third.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Of course, his last name sticks out — it’s the same as his infamous cousin Luigi, who is accused of murdering<\/strong> UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson <\/strong>on the streets of Midtown Manhattan on December 4, 2024.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Thompson’s murder was captured on video … showing an individual walk up to him outside of the New York Hilton Midtown hotel and shoot him in the leg and back.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Luigi was arrested five days later in Altoona, Pennsylvania, and indicted on several charges, including murder.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
