The former Leeds United boss was sacked by the Whites last year ahead of the club’s relegation
Former Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch has been appointed head coach at 2026 World Cup hosts Canada. The American has been out of management since being sacked by Leeds in February 2023. He held talks with Leicester City and Southampton following his Elland Road exit but declined roles at both clubs while he has been linked with a handful of international jobs - including South Korea and his home nation of the United States.
Before the World Cup in two years, Marsch’s first big task with Canada will be the Copa America this summer. Canada open the tournament against Argentina on June 20 and will also contest group games against Chile and Peru, with the competition culminating in the final on July 14. Marsch will not be the only former Leeds boss in charge of a team at Copa America with Marcelo Bielsa managing Uruguay, who are in a group with the United States, Panama and Bolivia.
