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.

Inter Miami appoint Argentine Gonzalez as new head coach

Lionel Messi's Inter Miami has announced the appointment of Argentine Cristian Gonzalez as the new head coach of the Major League Soccer champions. Gonzalez, a former player for Inter Milan, Valencia, and Zaragoza, will work to improve the team's recent performance and address their poor run of form post-World Cup under interim manager Guillermo Hoyos.

Gonzalez, 52, played as a left wing for European giants and earned 56 international caps for Argentina between 1995 and 2005. He transitioned to management in 2020, leading three Argentine clubs before joining Inter Miami. The MLS Cup holders have struggled since the mid-season World Cup break, losing four of their last five games, and currently sit second in the Eastern Conference, 10 points behind leaders Nashville.

Hoyos, who will remain in the role until his replacement's US work permit is approved, received a one-game ban for violating the league's late kick-off policy.
