Inter Miami appoint Argentine Gonzalez as new head coach
Cristian 'Kily' Gonzalez will attempt to turn around the club’s poor MLS form under interim manager Guillermo Hoyos.
Miami-based soccer club Inter Miami has announced the appointment of Argentine Cristian Gonzalez as their new head coach. The 52-year-old Gonzalez, a fellow Argentinian from Messi's hometown of Rosario, will take over from interim manager Guillermo Hoyos. Gonzalez's appointment aims to help the team overcome their recent poor form following the World Cup.
Gonzalez has an extensive playing career, including stints with Inter Milan, Valencia, and Zaragoza, and also earned 56 caps for Argentina between 1995 and 2005. Before becoming a coach in 2020, Gonzalez managed three Argentine clubs. Inter Miami, despite adding talented players like Brazil's Casemiro, has struggled since the mid-season World Cup break, losing four of their last five games.
Hoyos, who received a one-game ban for league violations, will remain in the role until Gonzalez's work permit is approved.
