As the United States Men’s National Team exits the 2022 World Cup, thoughts have turned to the future of the team, including who will lead it. With USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter’s contract expiring at the end of the year, according to Doug McIntyre of Fox Sports, U.S. Soccer has opened preliminary talks with the coach over a contract extension.
ESPN’s Jeff Carlisle goes further in his reporting on Berhalter’s discussions with U.S. Soccer over a new deal, saying that it is “very early in the process” and that Berhalter is also interested in exploring European club positions.
