The United States Women’s National Team program will be undergoing a restructuring in the sporting department. According to a report by The Equalizer’s Jeff Kassouf, USWNT general manager Kate Markgraf will leave the federation at the end of the month after her contract expires.
Markgraf has served as the USWNT general manager since August 2019 and was the primary person responsible for the hire of Vlatko Andonovski, who parted ways with the federation yesterday, as USWNT head coach. According to Kassouf, the decision for Markgraf to leave the federation was made before the start of the 2023 Women’s World Cup, which saw the USWNT end with their worst finish at a major tournament.
