Mauricio Pochettino has signed a new contract to continue as manager of the U.S. men’s national team, U.S. Soccer announced Monday morning.
Pochettino’s new deal runs through the 2030 World Cup. Longtime assistants Jesus Perez, Miguel D’Agostino and Toni Jiménez, as well as more recent additions Sebastian Pochettino and Silvia Tuyà, will remain on Pochettino’s staff.
“Mauricio and his staff believe in the future of soccer in the United States and our new project allows us to build on progress of the USMNT and the momentum of U.S. Soccer,” U.S. Soccer CEO and secretary general JT Batson said in a statement. “We know we have a lot of work to do to achieve our clear ambitions, including competing to win Men’s World Cups and having soccer become the most played sport in every community. I couldn’t be more excited that Mauricio and team are committed to partnering with all of us to do the hard work to bring those ambitions to life.”
