Frank de Boer appointed manager of Atlanta United

With manager Tata Martino departing the team to manage Mexico, Atlanta United was in need of a new manager. And to fill that vacancy, they scoured the Earth to find the best man for the job and found, Frank de Boer.

Quote:

“Frank de Boer has a distinguished background, both as manager and player, and we’re ecstatic to welcome him to our club,” Atlanta United President Darren Eales said. “When we began our search, we were determined to find someone who fit all of our criteria. In addition to meeting our club’s core values, Frank’s philosophical views for how to play unequivocally aligns with ours. He also has a proven track record of developing youth players, with many of them going on to star for top European teams. Finally, his multilingual capabilities, including Spanish and English, ensure a smooth transition in the leadership of our club.”

To be honest, he should find managing the best team in the US a little easier than managing a yearly relegation struggler.
