USMNT Coach Pochettino Offered Extension Through 2030 World Cup, per Report
The proposed deal would keep the Argentine manager in place through the 2030 World Cup, with a final decision expected after this year's tournament.
- The United States Soccer Federation has presented head coach Mauricio Pochettino with a four-year contract extension that would keep him through the 2030 World Cup, according to The Athletic.
- Pochettino, who took charge in the fall of 2024, is currently operating under a contract set to expire at the conclusion of this year's 2026 World Cup tournament.
- Earlier this week, the Argentine manager told reporters he is "open" to staying with Team USA, though his primary focus remains on the upcoming knockout round against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
- No formal decision will be made until after the tournament concludes, as Pochettino weighs the federation's offer against potential interest from European clubs, including the AC Milan vacancy filled by Ruben Amorim.
- If he accepts the extension, Pochettino would become the longest-tenured head coach for the United States men's team since Bruce Arena, who coached from 1998 to 2006.
