MIAMI — Inter Miami has officially confirmed that Guillermo Hoyos will remain the club’s head coach through the remainder of the season. Following the ongoing MLS World Cup break, Hoyos will continue to lead the team, putting an end to speculation regarding a potential managerial change at the Florida-based franchise.
A Record-Breaking Tenure
Hoyos, who transitioned from his role as Sporting Director to the head coach position in April following the departure of Javier Mascherano, has enjoyed a historic start.
• Impressive Form: Under his leadership, Inter Miami has secured 19 out of a possible 24 points, boasting a record of 6 wins, 1 draw, and 1 defeat.
• Goal-Scoring Machine: The team has been exceptionally clinical under Hoyos, scoring an impressive 26 goals in just eight matches.
• Best Start in History: This run marks the most successful start for any head coach in Inter Miami’s history since the club joined the MLS in 2020.
Dismissing Speculation
Despite recent media rumors linking high-profile names like Pep Guardiola to the Inter Miami vacancy, club sources have clarified that the front office is fully committed to Hoyos. There has been no contact with other candidates, and the leadership has expressed total confidence in his vision for the remainder of the campaign.
The "La Masia" Connection
A key factor in Hoyos’ success has been his ability to foster a strong team culture. His deep familiarity with the squad, particularly his long-standing relationship with captain Lionel Messi whom he coached at Barcelona’s La Masia academy over two decades ago has been credited with creating a seamless atmosphere in the dressing room.
Hoyos’ background, which includes extensive experience as both a coach and sporting director across various leagues including Liga MX, has proven to be the perfect fit for a roster looking to make a serious push for the MLS Cup.
Inter Miami is set to return to competitive action on July 22, hosting the Chicago Fire at Chase Stadium.
