Inter Miami Appoints Kily Gonzalez as Head Coach

Published 28 August 2026

Inter Miami has appointed former Argentina international Cristian "Kily" Gonzalez as its new head coach, tasking the 52-year-old with reviving the reigning MLS Cup champions amid a significant slump in form. The club confirmed the hiring on Thursday, August 27, 2026, with Gonzalez set to take over once he completes the U.S. work permit process. Interim manager Guillermo Hoyos will continue in the role until that time. Gonzalez arrives with five years of managerial experience in Argentina's top division, having coached Rosario Central, Union de Santa Fe, and most recently Platense. His appointment comes as Inter Miami seeks to arrest a worrying run of results.
