Mauricio Pochettino Emerges as Leading Candidate for USMNT Head Coach

The former Tottenham and Chelsea manager is in advanced talks with U.S. Soccer, aiming to fill the vacancy left by Gregg Berhalter.

Pochettino, 52, has extensive club-level success but has never managed a national team.
He has led teams like Tottenham to the Champions League final and PSG to a Ligue 1 title.
The U.S. Soccer Federation is prepared to offer a competitive salary to secure Pochettino.
Other high-profile candidates considered include Jürgen Klopp and Gareth Southgate.
Current U-20 coach Mikey Varas will oversee upcoming friendlies against Canada and New Zealand.
