On the day before Thanksgiving, US Soccer announced Dave Sarachan’s tenure as US Men’s National Team head coach is over.
He took the reins at a difficult time and helped pave the way for the next generation. Thank you, Coach Dave!

“Thank You Dave: Sarachan lays groundwork for future USMNT success” reads the headline of US Soccer’s official farewell to the man it burdened with the seemingly interminable task of coaching USMNT in the interim between Bruce Arena’s exit (after the USA’s failure to qualify for the 2018 World Cup) and the yet-to-be-announced appointment of new coach to lead the team into the next World Cup qualifying cycle.
