Gregg Berhalter: ‘Work to do’ in rebuilding relationship with Gio Reyna as coach returns to USMNT
Gregg Berhalter said there is “work to do” in “trying to rebuild” his relationship with Gio Reyna during his first news conference since the U.S. men’s national team announced the coach’s return to his previous position Friday. Berhalter will not be coaching the CONCACAF Gold Cup in an effort to avoid creating “the environment of Gregg puts his boats straight back on, slides back into the environment and it’s very much business as usual,” U.S. Soccer Federation’s sporting director Matt Crocker said. Crocker added that there are “some real big ticket items around some real strategic stuff over the next couple of seasons we need to map out first.” U.S. Soccer CEO JT Batson confirmed that the board of directors’ vote to bring back Berhalter was not unanimous. We’ll have time to do that — it is a priority — but we’ll have time to do that before the September window.” Backstory As the U.S. coach from 2019-22, Berhalter won the 2021 Nations League and Gold Cup trophies, qualified for the 2022 World Cup with the youngest team in the world and then got out of group play at the World Cup with strong performances against Wales, Iran and England.
