Arya News - Pochettino was hired in Sept. 2024 and led the U.S. men`s team to the Round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup.
Mauricio Pochettino told a Spanish radio station that will make a decision on his future with the United States Men"s National Team next week.
The Argentinian has been in discussions with U.S. Soccer about a contract extension to coach the team through the 2030 World Cup. A new deal was reportedly offered to the 54-year-old Pochettino before the start of the 2026 World Cup , which saw the USMNT win its group and reach the Round of 16 before falling to Belgium .
"We are evaluating it, looking at it," Pochettino told Cadena Cope on Thursday. "They [U.S. Soccer] have made me an offer to continue, and we will see. Next week we will [make] a decision."
Pochettino, who has previously managed Southampton, Tottenham, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea , was hired by U.S. Soccer in Sept. 2024 to replace Gregg Berhalter. In his first international job, he has led the USMNT to a 17-12-2 record in 31 matches in charge.
U.S. Soccer shelled out a record-$6 million to land Pochettino nearly two years ago. Both sides enjoyed their working relationship and have expressed an interest in working together beyond the 2026 World Cup .
"It"s difficult to describe or know your future," Pochettino said last month . "But when you are here, I think it"s difficult now to see yourself living in another place, because for sure, we will miss it if one day we don"t stay here in this country."
