MIAMI (AP) --- Javier Mascherano is out as Inter Miami's coach, a stunning move
that comes only four months after leading Lionel Messi's club to the MLS Cup
title.
Mascherano, a former teammate of Messi at Barcelona and with Argentina's
national team before reuniting with him as coach, is leaving for personal
reasons, the team said.
"I would like to thank the club for the trust they placed in me, every employee
who is part of the organization for the collective effort, but especially the
players, who made it possible for us to experience unforgettable moments,"
Mascherano said in remarks released by the team.
The move comes not even two weeks after Inter Miami opened its new stadium near
Miami International Airport. The club has tied both of its first two matches in
the new facility.
