It seems that the US Soccer Federation is very impressed with what Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino achieved with the US national team in the 2016 World Cup held in North America.

The US team performed well and was one of the technically gifted teams in the tournament until their elimination by Belgium. As a result of the impressive performance of the Argentine team, the federation's management decided to give him another chance.

It was expected that he would not continue with the team!

Before the start of the tournament, there was talk about the coach not continuing with the national team after the end of the 2026 World Cup, but the results that the coach presented with the national team were what made his final decision, and now they are very close to agreeing on the terms of a new contract.

According to reports from reliable journalist David Ornstein, the new contract may extend for an additional four years, which would keep him as coach of the US national team until 2030. Certainly, the new contract will include additional improvements that satisfy both parties.

Journalist Andres Cantor also indicated that negotiations with the American Football Federation are currently underway to renew the contract in a suitable format as well.

American fans were furious with Pochettino!

After the 4-1 loss to Belgium and the World Cup exit, American fans were angry with Pochettino's management of the American team, even though technically that match was indeed the worst for the American team with the Argentinian coach. However, it seems that the American management sees things differently and wants the coach to continue and give him more powers.
