U.S. Soccer sporting director Earnie Stewart and men's team general manager Brian McBride have decided to vacate their positions amid an ongoing shakeup at the organization, the federation said on Thursday.
Stewart will remain in the job until Feb. 15 to ensure a smooth transition before heading to the Netherlands to join PSV Eindhoven.
McBride said he had decided to move on from the role he has occupied for three years prior to last year's World Cup, in which the team reached the round of 16. Reyna's parents, who have known Berhalter and his wife for decades, responded by informing the federation of a dispute between Berhalter and his wife outside a bar 31 years ago that turned violent, prompting an ongoing investigation by U.S. Soccer.
Later on Thursday MLS side Austin FC announced that Gio's father, Claudio Reyna, would step down for his position as sporting director at the club but stay on in an advisory role.
