The search for a new assistant coach is already underway and the Club expects to announce a replacement ahead of the 2022 Major League Soccer (MLS) preseason.

"The Club would like to congratulate Anthony for earning this opportunity to lead Miami FC. He is a fantastic coach and person and we couldn't be happier for him.

"I want to thank Anthony for his contributions. I've had the fortune of working alongside him in my first year at Inter Miami and his coaching expertise and knowledge of the game in the North American landscape have been a great support for me and the team. In addition to being a great human being, Anthony is incredibly talented and passionate about coaching and I'm sure he'll continue to excel in this new role as the head coach of Miami FC," said First Team head coach Phil Neville.

"I would like to thank Phil, Chris and the ownership group for allowing me to pursue this opportunity to be a head coach.

The lessons I've learnt from each and every one of them have been invaluable to my development as a coach. The opportunity to be part of an organization from the very beginning is unique and one I will always be grateful for. I would like to wish everyone at Inter Miami CF all the very best in the future," said Pulis.
