Pellegrino Matarazzo, an American soccer manager from Wayne, New Jersey, is currently making a name for himself in European football by leading Real Sociedad in La Liga. After a challenging start with the club, he has successfully guided them to a record of 10 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses, positioning them in seventh place. Matarazzo, who previously managed VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga, has developed a reputation for his structured and disciplined coaching style, focusing on teamwork and efficient attacking strategies. His tenure at Sociedad began in December 2025, and he quickly made an impact, including a notable 2-1 victory over Barcelona and a run to the Copa del Rey semifinals. Matarazzo is now preparing for the Copa del Rey final against Atlético Madrid on April 18, which could mark a significant achievement in his career. Although his name has emerged as a potential candidate for the U.S. Men's National Team (USMNT) coaching position, Matarazzo appears committed to his role in La Liga, where he is building a solid coaching resume amidst evolving dynamics in international football.
