Former Liverpool goalkeeper Brad Friedel has revealed he would prefer sacked Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch to be the next United States national team head coach over Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
Marsch was sacked by Leeds on Monday after failing to win any of the club's last six matches in the Premier League, leaving them perilously close to the relegation zone. The US national team are also currently without a coach as Gregg Berhalter saw his contract expire at the end of last year following the World Cup, with his former assistant Anthony Hudson currently serving as the country's interim head coach.
Two-time Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was similarly shunned by Friedel in favour of American alternatives. French outlet L'Equipe reported earlier this year that Zidane had rejected an offer to become the country's next head coach.
