Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham has stated that the club is not rushing to replace head coach Javier Mascherano, who stepped down from his role due to personal reasons earlier this week. Mascherano had led the team to an MLS Cup title in 2025, but Beckham said the club needs to ‘let things settle down’ before hiring a new coach.<\/p>\n

Why it matters<\/p>\n

Mascherano’s departure is a significant blow for Inter Miami, as he had guided the team to success in his first season in charge, including an MLS Cup title. The club will need to carefully consider its next steps to ensure stability and continued success on the field.<\/p>\n

The details<\/p>\n

Mascherano stepped down as Inter Miami’s head coach on Tuesday, citing personal reasons. The decision came after a 2-2 draw with the New York Red Bulls over the weekend. Sporting director Guillermo Hoyos has taken over as interim manager, while the club’s chief soccer officer Alberto Marrero will assume sporting director duties. Beckham acknowledged that losing Mascherano at this time was ‘a difficult one’ for the club.<\/p>\n
