Tony Gustavsson insists Australia’s showing at the World Cup is just the start of a journey and has challenged Football Australia to make a meaningful investment

The Swede is contracted until the end of the 2024 Olympics, but on the back of guiding Australia to the World Cup semi-finals his name has been put forward by Jill Ellis as a candidate to take over as USA coach.

“What I can say is I love working with this team; it resonates with me as a coach – their identity, their why,” Gustavsson said. When asked what that investment looks like, Gustavsson narrowed it down to grassroots football – “the more players that play, the more players we will get” – improved facilities and the step up from Under-23 to senior national level.
