(Reuters) - Former U.S. men's manager Gregg Berhalter has been named head coach and director of football for the Chicago Fire, the Major League Soccer club said on Tuesday.
Berhalter, who was fired in July after the U.S. suffered a humiliating early exit on home soil at the Copa America, will formally begin his new role with the Fire after the conclusion of the 2024 MLS regular season.
