Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly close to agreeing a new contract that would see him be manager of the USMNT through the 2030 World Cup. Although nothing has been agreed, both parties are eager to get the deal over the line. Pochettino's initial contract ran out in August after he led the U.S. to their first World Cup knockout win since 2002.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino has hit back at his detractors in extraordinary fashion, claiming that those who criticised the 2026 World Cup were "consumed by hate." In a lengthy and defiant statement, the head of world football’s governing body defended the tournament’s legacy and urged his opponents to "meditate or pray" instead of spreading negativity.
