Interim coach leaves USMNT
Anthony Hudson quit as the interim head coach of the U.S. men’s national soccer team Tuesday, two weeks before he was to lead it in the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals.
He was replaced by B.J. Callaghan, another holdover from former coach Gregg Berhalter’s staff.
The departure was announced just six days after the U.S. Soccer Federation said Hudson was staying as the coach of the national team through the CONCACAF Gold Cup this summer. The USSF said Hudson was taking a job with a club but didn’t identify the team or his role.
The USSF said the decision to elevate Callaghan was made by Matt Crocker, who will become the USSF’s sporting director Aug. 2. Crocker is leading the search for a permanent coach to guide the national team through the 2026 World Cup.
