Sources: John Harkes out as FC Cincinnati coach

The former U.S. national team captain is out as head coach of USL side FC Cincinnati after just one season in charge, sources tell Goal.

Since FC Cincinnati launched as a USL expansion team a year ago, the team has been led by head coach John Harkes, a man who had come to be synonymous with the thriving club and its record-setting crowds.

Those crowds will have a new coach to cheer for though, as Harkes' tenure with Cincinnati has come to an end. Sources tell Goal that Harkes has been replaced as manager by assistant coach Alan Koch.
