Five logical candidates for USMNT coach not interviewed

As the United States Men’s National Team coaching search continues, people have been focusing on the coach that has been rumored to be the front runner for the position. But, what about the ones that were never adequately considered (at least publicly) by U.S. Soccer? There were, at minimum, five coaches that U.S. Soccer were confirmed to not have interviewed for the head coach position that have left most people scratching their heads.

Doug Roberson of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported today that USSF never reached out to Atlanta United coach Gerardo “Tata” Martino, who is set to leave the club at the end of the season after declining a contract extension.
