Manager sacked
New York City FC parts ways with Jansen
Summarised by MatchPal
Jansen departs after two seasons; NYCFC missed playoffs this year following a fifth-place finish in 2025.
Pascal Jansen has been sacked as New York City FC head coach after the club reviewed its performance. The 53-year-old Dutch manager arrived at NYCFC in early 2025 and guided the team to fifth place in the Eastern Conference in his first MLS season, losing to Inter Miami in the playoff semi-finals.
This year proved far more disappointing, with NYCFC finishing eleventh in the Eastern Conference and failing to qualify for the playoffs. Jansen still had a contract through the end of 2028.
