Overview
- Inter Miami announced on Thursday that it has reached an agreement to hire Cristian ‘Kily’ González as the club’s new first‑team head coach.
- González will not manage from the touchline until he secures U.S. work permits, so Guillermo Hoyos remains provisionally in charge and will miss one match following an MLS suspension for repeated late kickoffs.
- The change follows a five‑match winless run that includes four losses, an early Leagues Cup exit and a slide to second in the Eastern Conference, 10 points behind Nashville.
- González is a 52‑year‑old former Argentina international with 56 caps who played for Rosario Central, Valencia and Inter Milan and has managed Rosario Central, Unión de Santa Fe and Platense since 2020.
- Hoyos is expected to return to his prior role in Inter Miami’s youth development once González and his staff arrive, and the club will be watched for how quickly the new coach can steady a star‑studded squad and revive its postseason bid.
