Tata Martino hired for second stint as Atlanta United coach

Tata Martino returns to lead Atlanta United after a 14th-place finish in 2025, aiming to restore the team’s competitiveness in Major League Soccer.

  • Atlanta United rehired Gerardo 'Tata' Martino on Thursday, returning him to the club after his 2016–2018 head coach stint.
  • Ronny Deila's dismissal last month opened the coaching role after the club struggled with a 5-16-13 record in the Eastern Conference.
  • Having led Atlanta to a title and Miami to trophies, Martino brings proven success, winning MLS Cup 2018 with Atlanta United and the 2023 Leagues Cup and 2024 Supporters' Shield with Inter Miami CF.
  • Martino will report to Chief Soccer Officer and Sporting Director Chris Henderson, who said Martino emerged as the best candidate to restore Atlanta United's standard of excellence.
  • The club said the focus is on building a new foundation, with Martino describing the assignment as `a different project than my first stint with the club` at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
