Laurent Blanc Reportedly Considered as Bruce Arena Replacement for USMNT
The USA are reportedly considering former France and Paris Saint-Germain manager Laurent Blanc as their next coach after Bruce Arena resigned following his failure to guide the team to FIFA World Cup qualification.
ESPN FC's Jonathan Johnson relayed the news from France Football's Francois Verdenet:
Verdenet (h/t The Sun's Steve Goodman) also reported the Frenchman is receptive to the idea.
Blanc has not taken up a position since his departure from PSG last year, where he won three Ligue 1 titles and two Coupes de France in three years. He also won three Coupes de la Ligue in that time, having previously won the competition and Ligue 1 with Bordeaux back in 2009.
