Former Barcelona coach Tata Martino is in talks about a move to MLS.

After the Copa America, Martino stood down from his position as first team coach with the Argentine national team citing "personal problems" as the motivation behind the decision.

AS says according to reports from well connected US soccer insiders, the next destination for the 53 year old coach is set to be with new MLS franchise Atlanta United.

Atlanta United issued a "no comment" statement on the suggestion that Martino would become the first coach at the franchise and maintain they are still interviewing for the position.
