US Soccer offers contract renewal to Mauricio Pochettino through 2030 World Cup

• Pochettino has been in charge of the US since late 2024

• Former Spurs and PSG boss likely to have club interest

The US Soccer Federation has offered US men’s national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino a contract extension that would keep him in charge of the team through the 2030 World Cup, multiple sources familiar with the offer said on Friday. Sources spoke with the Guardian on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak on the matter.

Pochettino and the federation have been discussing a new deal for about three months, said one source. Pochettino, along with US Soccer CEO JT Batson, have both spoken publicly about contract negotiations as recently as late May, around the time that Pochettino was reported to have had talks with Serie A side Milan. Pochettino was coy when pressed about that particular advance, but Batson spoke openly about it, saying that the federation had received many inquiries in regards to Pochettino’s services.
