Bob Bradley Hasn't Resigned, Says US Soccer Federation

The rumor that Bob Bradley is leaving the US national soccer team to coach Premiership team Aston Villa is unfounded, according to the US Soccer Federation (USSF). Bob Bradley's contract expires in December.

Talks to review Bradley's contract were postponed until after the USA-Brazil friendly. Brazil won 2-0. Meanwhile, Bob Bradly has also been in touch with Fulham, who are looking for a new manager.

Prior to the Brazil game, Bradley said he would love the challenge of coaching in Europe but also said leading USA towards the 2014 World Cup would be a challenge.

But USSF spokesman Neil Buethe said, "The reports that Bob Bradley has resigned are not true."

Buethe added that USSF president Sunil Gulati and general secretary Dan Flynn might meet with Bradley as soon as next week to discuss his future.
