Matias Almeyda was tempted to coach in Chivas or Pumas but prefers to continue in MLS. 

SJ Earthquakes is an unstable MLS team and their playoff run is still at risk. Two weeks ago Matias Almeyda was questioned as a coach and rumors grew that he could manage Mexico again. Almeyda is very clear that he wants to continue in the MLS with only one goal in the future: to be the coach of the USMNT. 

Almeyda knows that to be a coach for the USMNT he must run big campaigns in MLS. If he manages to win with SJ Earthquakes the chances of being able to lead the USMNT will grow. Almeyda already recognized in the past the desire to lead such an important team as the USMNT. The future of the USMNT is very promising and Almeyda knows it.

In order to earn the opportunity to lead the USMNT, Almeyda must remain in the United States. His salary at SJ Erthquakes is very good and he has an exit clause of almost $ 3 million. It is very clear what Almeyda's wish is for his future, he only has to improve the performance of SJ Earthquakes.

SJ Earthquakes is just a few points away from leaving the playoff zone and today he faces the LA Galaxy in a very important game for the future of both teams. Almeyda faces Guillermo Barros Schelotto again in what is expected to be a great match. Almeyda wants the USMNT and for that, he must keep winning.
