Galaxy hire former TFC boss Vanney as new head coach

The LA Galaxy announced on Tuesday that the club has hired former Toronto FC head coach Greg Vanney.

Vanney replaces Guillermo Barros Schelotto, who was dismissed by the Galaxy at the end of the season, as he takes charge of the club he played for from 1996-2002 and then again in 2008.

The former Toronto FC coach lifted his side to a treble in 2017, winning the MLS Cup, MLS Supporters’ Shield, and Canadian Championship during that season.
