United States men’s national soccer team coach Gregg Berhalter is set to enter into contract talks with the U.S. Soccer Federation, thereby shedding light on his future with the national team. With the process still in its early stages, rumors have emerged of the Team USA boss also being open to considering jobs at European clubs.
Berhalter led the United States to the World Cup Round of 16, where they lost 3-1 to the Netherlands after emerging as Group B runners-up after remaining undefeated in three group games.
Following the United States World Cup elimination, Berhalter stated that he would like to take some time to “decompress” before making any decisions regarding his future. With his current contract expiring at the end of the year, however, the U.S. Soccer Federation has already expressed its intent to enter into negotiations with the coach.
Berhalter was appointed as manager of the U.S. national team after the team failed to qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Since then, he has secured World Cup qualification for the team as well as led the United States to victory at the inaugural 2021 Concacaf Nations League and the Gold Cup.
