(Reuters) - John Herdman, who coached the Canadian men's team to their first World Cup appearance in 36 years, said on Wednesday he has received other offers but has no plans to leave his position.
The 47-year-old Englishman, who previously said he planned to remain Canada's coach through 2026, reiterated his loyalty to the program following recent reports he had agreed to take over the New Zealand national team.
Herdman led Canada to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where the national team made their first appearance at the global showpiece tournament since 1986. "At the World Cup in Qatar, our men showed the world that they belong at that level," said Herdman."I'm not going anywhere. We still have a job to do, and the objective is to take this team to the next level in 2026."
