Canada coach John Herdman has called in some veteran help for his team\u0027s push for a trophy this summer.
Herdman said he had discussions with Neville prior to the World Cup in Qatar about spending time with Canada as an assistant.“For both coaches, it’ll be an opportunity, one, for us to look at them and see how they fit with our culture, the environment and what they can offer as we plan for 2026,” Herdman said. “And for them, it’s just, I think, a unique opportunity as they describe it to be part of a Canadian team pushing for silverware and its first silverware in a long time.
Herdman said he had “some challenges financially” in recruiting an assistant coach in the past and deVos, a former Canada captain and centre back, had filled that gap.Biello works with the forwards while Tenllado look after the midfield and Eaddy the goalkeepers. Shaw will now work with the defensive unit while Neville helps with fullbacks/wingbacks.
“These coaches may stay on but I’m certainly looking to recruit coaches that have had these varied experiences through the next four years so this will be a trend that you’ll see — these guest coaches rotating in. And some of those coaches might stick around ⦠The players will really enjoy different voices and people who have won — at the highest level.”
