Former Chelsea Manager, Mauricio Pochettino is set to become the new coach of the United States national team, per The Athletic and ESPN on Thursday.
The Athletic and ESPN reported that unnamed sources confirmed Pochettino, who parted ways with English Premier League side Chelsea in May, would replace Gregg Berhalter as boss.
The Argentine, 52, would arrive as the United States prepares to co-host the 2026 World Cup alongside Mexico and Canada.
Pochettino left Chelsea after finishing sixth in the Premier League in his only season in charge, after previous stints with Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham.
ESPN however said the Argentinian is yet to sign a contract with US Soccer as he has to resolve a pay situation with Chelsea.
ESPN further reported that Pochettino would be expected to take over the US squad in time for a friendly against Canada on September 7 at Kansas City.
