QatarMauricio Pochettino, the former Argentina defender and former Tottenham and PSG coach, has signed a four-year contract extension with US Soccer to remain as head coach of the U.S. men's national team through the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The decision comes after the team reached the round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup, finishing first in their group with six points, the highest ever for the U.S. men's team at a World Cup. Pochettino, known for his high-pressing style, took charge of the U.S. team in 2024 after leaving Chelsea. US Soccer CEO JT Batson praised the coaching staff's belief in the future of American soccer. Pochettino's tenure includes leading the team to a victory over Bosnia in the last 32 before a 4-1 loss to Belgium.
