Following a rather poor Copa America at home, US Soccer finally made the long-awaited call to fire Berhalter due to the USMNT's dwindling quality. As such, they are now on the hunt for a new head coach who will lead them in the World Cup in 2026, and as per <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13652459/usmnt-coaching-search-soccer-vacancy-world-cup-legend.html" target="_blank">Fabrizio Romano</a>, US Soccer believes that Henry might be the man for the job.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"One more name they discussed is Thierry Henry," <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/1dZnQ55V8o17S3KvlTt4ly?si=18dd4d67e0614520&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=1d9593edadea43ed" target="_blank">Romano said on The Here We Go podcast</a>. "Thierry Henry is now busy with the Olympics with the French national team so nothing is going to happen in the next days obviously, but after that, keep an eye on Thierry Henry because he's another name they discussed internally."

WHAT ROMANO SAID

Henry was recently approached by the French national women's team over the potential of taking over the reins from Herve Renard who left the job earlier this summer. Henry, however, wants to remain open for the USMNT job and turned down the aforementioned job.

DID YOU KNOW?

The 46-year-old has been plying his trade with the French youth squads and is currently acting coach for the French delegation for the Olympics in Paris. It is likely that if he does decide to make the shift to the USMNT, it will only be possible after the conclusion of the Olympics.

WHAT NEXT FOR HENRY?
