Luiz Muzzi is set to take over as FC Dallas vice president of soccer operations with technical director Fernando Clavijo taking a leave of absence as he recovers from cancer treatment.
Muzzi, 49, has been with the club as the assistant technical director since Dec. 2012 and said little will change even as he moves into a bigger role.
"It's a continuation. There's not something new, something different, nothing real like that," he said. "Every time you've seen something in the past six years we've been here that's something where Fernando did, it's Fernando and Luiz, every time you see something Luiz, it's Fernando and Luiz.
