The U.S. Soccer Federation will make a decision on the future of United States men’s national team manager Gregg Berhalter by the middle of the next week, sources confirmed to ESPN.
Fox Sports was the first to report the news.
The USMNT was eliminated from the group stage of the 2024 Copa América on Monday following a 1-0 defeat to Uruguay. This followed a 2-0 win over Bolívia and a backbreaking 2-1 loss to Panama.
Following the U.S. men’s failure to advance out of the group stage, U.S. Soccer sporting director Matt Crocker said that the USSF would be conducting “a comprehensive review of our performance in Copa América and how best to improve the team and results as we look towards the 2026 World Cup.”
The timeline is similar to that which the USSF used following the U.S. women’s national team’s exit from the 2023 Women’s World Cup almost a year ago. On that occasion, then-USWNT manager Vlatko Andonovski resigned his post 11 days after the U.S. women were eliminated by Sweden in the round of 16.
