The LA Galaxy announced a series of announcements concerning their coaching staff around the club on Friday. LA Galaxy II head coach Yoann Damet has been promoted to be an assistant coach with the Galaxy first team under Greg Vanney, while Marcelo Sarvas has been named Galaxy II head coach moving forward.
Damet, in his first season in the Galaxy organization, compiled a 9W-11L-6D record in USL Championship play this season, the team sitting just below the playoff line with eight games left in the regular season. Only 32, Damet has experience coaching limited stretches at MLS level as FC Cincinnati’s interim head coach in 2019 and 2020.
