The United States team will hire a new coach ahead of the FIFA World Cup at home.
Mauricio Pochettino will work at national team level for the first time in his career.
According to The Athletic, the Argentine has agreed to become the next head coach of the US national team.
In this position, he will replace Gregg Berhalter, under whose leadership the Stars and Stripes failed at home Copa America 2024, where they failed to get past the group stage.
Although the American Federation considered several candidates, Pochettino was its main target.
It will be a new experience for the 52-year-old specialist – he has never led the national team. All his successes were achieved at club level.
During his career, he led Southampton to eighth place in the Premier League in 2013, led Tottenham to the Champions League final in 2019 and won the French title with PSG in 2022.
Pochettino’s last job was Chelsea. With the Londoners, he finished sixth in England, but then the coach was fired.
We remind you that earlier the head coach of Roma appreciated the importance of Dovbik for the team.
