USMNT make major decision ahead of Gold Cup amid Folarin Balogun and Christian Pulisic call

B.J Callaghan has been named head coach of the USMNT for next month's CONCACAF Nations League and Gold Cup tournaments, replacing interim boss Anthony Hudson.

Hudson took control of five games following Gregg Berhalter's dismissal after the World Cup, winning two, drawing two and losing once. But US Soccer today, Tuesday, announced that Callaghan has been promoted to the head coach role after working as an assistant for the last four years.

“B.J. has been an integral part of the USMNT staff during the last four years as this young team has grown and developed,” sporting director Matt Crocker said. “Working alongside Anthony Hudson these last five months, we are confident he is prepared and ready to lead this group in the summer tournaments. We are grateful to Anthony for the tremendous job he did and wish him success in the future.”
