“Josh is a young and very talented coach who we trust to lead this Club on the field moving forward,” said Austin FC Sporting Director Claudio Reyna.

“The style of play and work ethic he has implemented, and his mentorship of our players has created a really strong culture around our Club and led to an incredible amount of growth in a short period of time. We’re thrilled to see what he’s capable of in the coming years. Our future is bright.
