Anthony Patrick Hudson (born March 11, 1981) is a professional football manager who most recently left his role as head coach of Al-Markhiya SC by mutual consent, after three games in charge, stepping into an advisory role instead.[4]

Hudson became one of the youngest coaches to earn the

UEFA Pro Licence, the highest coaching award in football, in 2012.[5]

Hudson has managed Bahrain and New Zealand, leading the teams to the 2015 AFC Asian Cup and 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup respectively. Hudson also became the youngest ever manager to lead a team in FIFA Confederations Cup history while managing New Zealand.[6]

In 2023, Hudson had briefly been the interim coach of the United States national team, before stepping down before the start of the 2023 CONCACAF Nations League finals.

Early life and playing career

Hudson was born in Seattle on March 11, 1981,

Millfield School.[10]

Hudson started playing in the

Wilmington Hammerheads in 2006, ultimately appearing in 10 league games.[13][14][15]

Coaching career

United Soccer League

In 2005, Hudson became player-assistant head coach of

Wilmington Hammerheads
, having spent the previous two years working as an academy coach at AC Diablos SC.

On October 28, 2008, Hudson was named as Real Maryland Monarchs head coach at the age of 27.[13] He was the youngest professional manager (head coach) in the U.S at the time.[16] In his first season as manager he led the club, which had finished bottom of the table in 2008, to fifth place and a Playoffs spot, their first visit to the post-season. Real Maryland were knocked out in the quarter-final after a 3–1 defeat by the Charlotte Eagles.[17] Hudson was also nominated for the USL Second Division 2009 Coach of the Year Award.[8]

In the

2010 US Open Cup,[19] Real Maryland were knocked out in the second round by the Richmond Kickers.[20] Hudson left Real Maryland at the conclusion of the 2010 season after two seasons in charge.[21][22]

Tottenham Hotspur

After leaving Real Maryland following the 2010 season, Hudson returned to the United Kingdom to take up a post coaching Tottenham Hotspur's reserves.[23]

Newport County

In April 2011, Hudson, aged 30, was appointed manager of Conference Premier club Newport County with seven games remaining of their 2010–11 season.[23] He arrived with a "glittering reference"[24] from Harry Redknapp, who likened him to "a young José Mourinho".[25]

Hudson took charge of Newport County for the first time in a 2–1 home victory over

UEFA Pro Licence with the English Football Association.[28] On September 28, 2011, with Newport having won only once in their first 12 games, Hudson was sacked,[29] despite new signing David Pipe stating "we've lost quite a few games lately but everyone is definitely behind the gaffer",[30] and senior players "contacting the press to let the fans know what the players think".[31][32][33] Following Hudson's departure, Newport Chairman Chris Blight was quoted as saying "We are a quarter of the way through the season and to be where we are, to Newport County Football Club is not what we expected or anticipated."[32]

Bahrain

On March 21, 2012, Hudson was appointed manager of the

2012 U23 Gulf Cup, eventually losing 2–0 to Saudi Arabia under-23.[35] Hudson then worked under Argentinian coach Gabriel Calderón after Taylor's sacking on October 17, 2012.[36] Hudson signed a two-year extension as the Bahrain under-23 manager in June.[37]

On August 13, 2013, Hudson was appointed manager of Bahrain, succeeding Calderón.

U23 Gulf Cup of Nations, beating Saudi Arabia in the final.[42] This was the first official gold medal the Bahrain U23 national team have won in their history.[citation needed
]

In January 2014, Hudson led Bahrain to a third-place finish at the

2014 WAFF Championship.[43] After 0–0 draws against Oman and Iraq, Bahrain made the semi-finals of the tournament due to a drawing of lots. Bahrain lost their semifinal 1–0 to Jordan,[44] and earned their third-place finish via a penalty shootout after 0–0 draw against Kuwait.[45] In February 2014, Hudson signed a two-year contract extension as Bahrain manager.[46] On July 27, 2014, Hudson resigned as manager of Bahrain.[47]

New Zealand All Whites

In August 2014, Hudson was appointed manager of the

New Zealand national under-17 football team made history by making into knockout stages of their respective World Cups in the same cycle for the first time.[50][51][52][53] Hudson's first game in charge of the national team was a 3–1 defeat away to Uzbekistan in September 2014.[54]

In 2015, All Whites defeated

Oceania Olympic Qualifiers at the Pacific Games in July 2015, but were disqualified (and had their semi final win overturned) for fielding an ineligible player due to an administrative error from the national body.[56][57] This incident led to Hudson losing players for selection for his preparation for his matches against Myanmar and Oman[58] as the national body continued their detailed review of the internal processes and eligibility information for all players.[59]

In January 2016, Hudson hit out on the national body over lack of games as the national body failed to find a fixture against suitable opposition for the All Whites in the March FIFA window.

Hull City, Crystal Palace, Leicester City, England Under-21 and stand-in England manager Peter Taylor as his assistant coach.[64] When appointed Peter Taylor praised the progress made by the All Whites under Hudson.[65]

In October 2016, after two away games against Mexico and USA (a 2–1 loss and a 1–1 draw, respectively), former All Whites' captain Ryan Nelsen said the team had gone up a level under Hudson and he had "never seen New Zealand teams play this way".[66] Hudson was also linked to the manager's position at Derby County[67] and Norwich City[68] and reportedly turned down job for MK Dons.[69] Hudson denied that he was approached by Derby County, stating there had been "no approach or contact between him and Derby".

In March 2017, Hudson led the All Whites into the Round 3 Play-Off Final by securing top spot in Group A of the third stage of Oceania World Cup Qualifiers.[70] During the All Whites' preparation for World Cup Qualifiers against Fiji, Tommy Smith, senior player, praised the professionalism of the national team's set-up.[71] Hudson made an inaccurate statement regarding the statistics of the All Whites records. Hudson's statement, "losing one game in two years" and "scoring 26 goals, conceding 5", was in fact including the New Zealand U23's record, games he has coached in his campaign for New Zealand, and taking the All Whites' two-year run from after their March 31, 2015, match against South Korea.[72][73]

In June 2016, Hudson led the All Whites to 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup as the lowest ranked team, 95th at the time, in the tournament. Their first match was against the hosts Russia, where they were beaten 0–2.[74] Their second match against Mexico was a close one as they took the lead, but their efforts ended in a 1–2 loss, thus earning their early exit along with Russia.[75] Despite the exit, Portugal's manager, Fernando Santos, praised New Zealand as a "team that can surprise anyone" after their performances against Mexico.[76] In the end, New Zealand finished Group A with a third defeat to European champions Portugal.[77] In spite of this, Hudson was praised from overseas press, including Portugal and South Korea[78] as well as from New Zealand captain Winston Reid, and player Ryan Thomas for constant "improvements" of the trainings and the environment.[79][80]

In September 2017, New Zealand won the OFC Final against Solomon Islands. The All Whites won the home-and-away tie on an aggregate score of 8–3 to win the OFC Qualifiers and qualify for the Inter-continental play-offs qualifier against the fifth-ranked nation from South America, Peru.[81] This match represented New Zealand's first home match to be played against a "top-100 nation" in the last three and a half years,[82] unprecedented for any international team.[83][84]

In November 2017, Hudson took his team into two-legged intercontinental playoff against Peru, world's 10th ranked team at the time, for a place at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. After a 0–0 draw in Wellington, Peru beat New Zealand 2–0 in Lima, qualifying for the World Cup on aggregate over the two legs. Hudson later announced his resignation as All Whites coach after not qualifying for the World Cup, despite a desire from NZ Football chief executive Andy Martin for him to stay.[85][86] Following Hudson's departure, Martin described Hudson as one of the best coaches NZF has had and he would leave behind a professional standard that NZF had never had before.[87]

As part of a High Performance Sport NZ programme, Hudson also spent time with All Blacks' coaches, Steve Hansen and long-time assistant Wayne Smith, as well as Crusaders coach Scott Robertson.[88][89][90] Hudson has close relationship with Hansen as All Blacks previously shared time with him and the All Whites.[91]

Colorado Rapids

On November 29, 2017, Hudson was announced as the new coach of the Colorado Rapids in Major League Soccer.[92] At 36, Hudson became the youngest head coach in Colorado Rapids' history,[93] as well as the youngest head coach in the 2018 MLS season.[94] In his first season in charge, Hudson led the Rapids to nine consecutive losses across all competitions,[95] including a loss to lower division United Soccer League side Nashville SC in the U.S. Open Cup.[96]

On May 1, 2019, the Rapids announced that they had relieved Hudson of his duties following comments made in the media post the Atlanta United game where he was quoted,

"We are fighting at the bottom with a bottom group of players and we have to find a way to pick up results whilst also being a team that tries to play a certain way. And we just have to find that balance. The only way it's going to be a quick fix is if you wave a magic wand at it and throw lots of money at it. Clearly we're not doing that. I'll go back to this: Every single game we go into, whether it's Nani, whether it's [Wayne] Rooney, whether it's [Lucho] Acosta — every single week there are players in this league making a difference and the gap in quality is huge … There are teams with a lot more quality than us. And that's what we're competing against. And no one talks about it.

Hudson's comments were related to his team being the only team in the league with one marquee player, goalkeeper Tim Howard, whereas other teams had two or three marquee players.[97]

After Hudson was relieved of his duties, the Rapids named assistant coach Conor Casey as his interim replacement. Hudson ended his tenure in Denver with an 8–26–9 record as the statistical worst coach in Rapids history at the time.[98]

United States

In January 2021, Hudson joined the United States national team as assistant to manager Gregg Berhalter.[99]

Under their leadership, the

final to become the first champions of the 2021 CONCACAF Nations League on June 6, 2021.[100]

The

After qualifying for the 2022 FIFA World Cup following a 2-0 loss to Costa Rica in the final match of CONCACAF qualifying at Estadio Nacional in San Jose, Costa Rica,[102] the United States national team's run at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar ended after the Netherlands defeated the US 3-1 in the round of 16.[103]

On January 4, 2023, Hudson was named interim manager of the United States national team, following the expiration of previous manager Gregg Berhalter's contract with U.S. Soccer. In a press release, the federation announced that Hudson would be responsible for selecting and managing the roster for the January 2023 camp and associated friendlies against Serbia and Colombia.[104]

The USMNT qualified for the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup following their 7-1 win over Grenada in Group D of League A of the 2022-23 CONCACAF Nations League.[105]

Hudson stepped down from his interim position on May 30, 2023 and departed the US Soccer organization to take an undisclosed new opportunity. B. J. Callaghan was named as his replacement, maintaining the interim tag.[106]

Al-Markiyah SC

Hudson signed with Qatar Stars League Al-Markiyah SC at the start of the 2023/24 season. After three league matches, Hudson moved into a technical advisory role, leaving his position as manager by mutual consent with the club. As of April 2024, he became a free agent.[107]

Personal life

Apart from his native English, Hudson also speaks Spanish.[108]

During the end of his football career and the start of his management career, Hudson sought out help from Alcoholics Anonymous which aided him to quit in 2005. Hudson has been sober since and has volunteered in prisons and hospitals in the US, UK, and New Zealand, helping people with drinking problems.[109]

In May 2019, Hudson founded the Forgotten Dogs Foundation, aimed at helping homeless dogs find a safe haven. The foundation holds soccer clinics and tournaments as fundraisers.[110]
