If Gregg Berhalter is replaced as U.S. men's soccer coach, who will take his place? We examine 10 candidates, including legendary Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp.
The big question isn't whether Gregg Berhalter will return as the U.S. men's national team's coach. The big question is who will replace him if he doesn't. American Jesse Marsch — U.S. Soccer sporting director Matt Crocker's first choice before the Welshman ultimately rehired Berhalter last year — is unavailable after taking the Canada job. He promptly led the Reds to Friday's Copa América quarterfinal against Venezuela .
to consecutive MLS Cups finals in his first two years with the club, winning in 2022. He also has a Supporters Shield, reached a Concacaf final, and was an assistant in the Bundesliga before that. Cherundolo was part of three US World Cup teams as a player. He speaks perfect German, is connected across Europe and is universally respected back home. He also wouldn't cost much more than Hayes, which could be a factor if the likes of Klopp and Southgate aren't interested.
could also balk at letting him leave mid-season. It's hard to see them standing in his way, though, and the opportunity might be difficult to turn down. Cherundolo is the early front-runner. Likelihood: 8 Why it makes sense: The longtime Three Lions manager is a big name. And he's expected to leave his post after Euro 2024 even if England wins the tournament, which they absolutely still can.
