Javier Mascherano has stepped down as coach of Inter Miami.
Mascherano is no longer coach of Inter Miami as the club released a statement on Tuesday announcing that he has left due to personal reasons. Joining the club in 2024, the Argentine won the 2025 MLS Eastern Conference and the 2025 MLS Cup. Speaking on the club’s website, here is what he had to say:
“I want to let everyone know that, for personal reasons, I have decided to end my tenure as head coach of Inter Miami CF.
“First and foremost, I would like to thank the Club for the trust they placed in me, every employee who is part of the organization for the collective effort, but especially the players, who made it possible for us to experience unforgettable moments.
“I also want to thank the fans and La Familia, because none of this would have been possible without them.
“I will always carry with me the memory of our first star, and wherever I am, I will continue to wish the Club all the best moving forward. I have no doubt that the Club will continue to achieve success in the future.
“Sending you all a big hug, and thank you for everything.”
Diego Simeone’s stupidity will cost this team. How can you start Sorloth, griezeman, lookman and Alvarez together. Sorloth and Griezeman lacks pace, it would have been better to drop Sorloth in favour of a midfielder to bring balance. Playing Sorloth as starter is like playing one man less. Playing Alvarez deep annoys me, he should be the target player.
Apologies Sorloth is on the bench. But simeone shouldn’t gamble with that backline
