Several notable names have emerged as potential candidates to lead the San Jose Earthquakes as the club looks to turn around their current last-place standing. Among those interviewed for the head coaching position are former U.S. men's national team head coaches Gregg Berhalter and Bruce Arena.

Arena, the winningest head coach in MLS history, has an impressive resume with five MLS Cups, four Coach of the Year awards, and four Supporters' Shields under his belt. Berhalter, who recently led the U.S. men's national team to the Round of 16 at the 2022 World Cup, has also amassed a strong coaching record.

Social media users have expressed mixed reactions to the news of the potential coaching candidates. Some have jokingly suggested that the club may need to open their wallet to secure a top coach, while others have speculated on the likelihood of certain candidates taking the job.

With San Jose currently sitting at the bottom of the MLS standings with just 18 points in 30 matches, the appointment of a new head coach is seen as crucial to reviving the struggling club. Recent comments from forward Jeremy Ebobisse highlight the distress within the team, as they aim to improve their performance and climb up the table.

As the search for a new head coach continues, the San Jose Earthquakes are looking to bring in a leader who can guide the team to success and bring stability to the organization.
