Canada has shown interest in American Jesse Marsch and former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for their vacant head coach position.

According to The Standard, both Marsch and Solskjaer have been approached by the Canadian Soccer Federation regarding the position.

Solskjaer has been without a job since his dismissal in 2021, while Marsch has been available since February 2023 when he was relieved of his duties at Leeds United.

The report also mentions other candidates in the running, including former Chelsea and Real Madrid assistant Paul Clement, Forge FC manager Bobby Smyrniotis, and former Middlesbrough manager Aitor Karanka.

Canada, along with the U.S. and Mexico, is set to co-host the 2026 World Cup.

While they qualified for the 2022 World Cup, their first appearance in 36 years, head coach John Herdman departed shortly after for MLS side Toronto FC.

Frank Lampard and Jose Mourinho declined interview offers for the role, prompting Canada to explore alternative options as they prepare for the next World Cup.

Canada is also scheduled to participate in the 2024 Copa America this summer, where they will face Argentina, Peru, and Chile in the group stage, including a match against Lionel Messi and the defending champions.
