Los Angeles FC fired head coach Marc Dos Santos after a disappointing run, including just one win in its last 10 MLS matches and a 1-0 loss to FC Dallas. LAFC is sixth in the Western Conference with 41 points, leaving its playoff position and push for home-field advantage still at stake. The club thanked Dos Santos for his contributions but did not announce an immediate replacement, saying it would share interim coaching plans and begin a search for a permanent successor.
Key Points

Dos Santos’s poor run extended beyond MLS: LAFC went 0-1-2 in the Leagues Cup, making its record across the reported 13 contests one win, five losses and seven draws.
2
LAFC supporters had booed the team at home, and Dos Santos had drawn criticism for what fans viewed as static tactics and substitution decisions.
3
Forwards Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-Min had combined for 20 goals and 21 assists that season.
4
LAFC was three points behind fifth-place St. Louis CITY FC and five points ahead of seventh-place Colorado Rapids at the time of the dismissal.
