USMNT Faces Potential Coaching Change Months After Pochettino Extension
World Sports · 05:53:39 - Saturday, 14 November 2026

The United States men's national team could lose head coach Mauricio Pochettino just months after he signed a contract extension, according to reports emerging Tuesday. The Argentine coach led a press conference at Los Angeles Stadium in Inglewood, California, on June 11, 2026, as part of FIFA World Cup 2026 preparations.

Speculation about Pochettino's future with the program has intensified despite the recent extension, though specific reasons for a potential departure were not detailed in initial reports. The USMNT is currently building toward the 2026 World Cup, which will be hosted jointly by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
