LAFC fires coach Marc Dos Santos after just one win in last 10 matches
Los Angeles FC has fired head coach Marc Dos Santos after the club collected just one win in its last 10 matches.
Los Angeles FC has terminated the contract of head coach Marc Dos Santos following a disappointing stretch of only one victory in their last ten matches. John Thorrington, the club's president of soccer operations, expressed gratitude for Dos Santos' dedication while announcing the decision. An interim head coach has yet to be appointed.
Dos Santos, who took over as head coach in his inaugural season, previously served as an assistant for five years (2018, 2022-25). Despite featuring star players like Hugo Lloris, Son Heung-min, and Denis Bouanga, LAFC failed to meet the expectations of a club aiming for multiple trophies. The team currently sits sixth in the Western Conference standings and has six matches left in the MLS regular season, beginning with a home game against the Vancouver Whitecaps on October 10.
