Bruce Arena quit as coach of the New England Revolution on Saturday night, six weeks after he was placed on administrative leave by Major League Soccer for what it said were “allegations that he made insensitive and inappropriate remarks.”
The 71-year-old, a member of the U.S. National Soccer Hall of Fame, did not detail the allegations. The league had placed him on leave on Aug. 1.
Richie Williams, a longtime Arena assistant, was appointed interim coach at the time of the leave, and the team said he will remain in that role. Curt Onalfo will continue as interim sporting director, filling a role Arena also held. The Revolution have never won an MLS Cup, but have been to the finals five times. The last was in 2014 when they lost to the LA Galaxy team coached by Arena.
