Detroit, MI, August 3, 2026 —

Mauricio Pochettino has committed to leading the U.S. men’s national soccer team for an extended period, agreeing to a new four-year contract that will keep him at the helm through the 2030 World Cup.

Pochettino took charge of the national team in October 2024. Under his guidance, the team achieved a spot in the round of 16 during the recent World Cup tournament. The team’s run concluded with a loss to Belgium.

The new agreement signifies a continued partnership between the coach and the national soccer organization, with a focus on developing the team’s performance in the lead-up to and including the 2030 World Cup.
