The United States men’s national team will have B.J. Callaghan as their new interim head coach for this summer’s CONCACAF Nations League and Gold Cup tournaments after current interim Anthony Hudson left the organization for another job.
U.S. Soccer announced Tuesday that assistant B.J. Callaghan will take over for Hudson, who himself took over after Greg Berhalter’s contract expired in January. Despite Callaghan’s promotion, the search for a full-time head coach remains ongoing.
“B.J. has been an integral part of the USMNT staff during the last four years as this young team has grown and developed,” U.S. Soccer sporting director Matt Crocker said in a statement Tuesday. “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.”
