John Herdman Departs Canada Soccer Men’s National Team - Canada Soccer

Canada Soccer's Men's National Team Head Coach, John Herdman, has resigned from his position and will now take on the head coaching role with Toronto FC.

Herdman's departure marks the end of a remarkable tenure in Canadian soccer. During his time as head coach, he achieved significant milestones, such as leading the Women's National Team to consecutive Olympic bronze medals and guiding the Men's National Team to their first FIFA World Cup qualification in 36 years.

Charmaine Crooks, President of Canada Soccer, acknowledged Herdman's unparalleled contribution to Canadian soccer and wished him success in his new role with Toronto FC.

Herdman expressed his gratitude for the past 12 years and the connections he formed through various international events. Mauro Biello will serve as the interim Head Coach, with Herdman assisting in a seamless transition. The search for a new Men's National Team Head Coach will commence promptly.

Alongside Herdman's departure, Assistant Coaches Simon Eaddy and Eric Tenllado, Lead Scout Alex Dodgshon, and Head of Performance Dr. Cesar Meylan will also be leaving Canada Soccer, and they were recognized for their contributions.
