Mauricio Pochettino has signed a contract extension to remain as the head coach of the United States men's national soccer team until the 2030 World Cup, according to U.S. Soccer. Pochettino took charge in 2024 and led the team to the last 16 at the recently concluded World Cup, which the U.S., Canada, and Mexico co-hosted. The coach expressed confidence in the team's potential and emphasized the support from fans during the tournament. Pochettino previously coached in Europe, including at Tottenham Hotspur and Paris Saint-Germain, and was appointed after the departure of former coach Gregg Berhalter. Under his leadership, the U.S. team reached the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup final, though they lost to Mexico. Despite high expectations due to the home advantage, the team was eliminated by Belgium in the round of 16 after a controversial incident involving player Folarin Balogun.
