Sigi Schmid, som tränade Los Angeles Galaxy förra säsongen, är död.
Han blev 65 år gammal.
När Zlatan Ibrahimovic anlände till Los Angeles Galaxy var det MLS-legendaren Sigi Schmid som var tränare.
Schmid är MLS mest framgångsrika tränare någonsin, sett till antalet segrar.
Schmid fick dock lämna Galaxy i september, efter att laget haft en tung period. Klubben var ändå nära att ta sig till slutspel, men föll i sista matchen.
Enligt Los Angeles Times fördes Schmid till sjukhus för tre veckor sedan. Han var i behov av en hjärttransplantation, men Schmid fick aldrig lämna sjukhuset. Han avled på onsdag morgon, lokal tid.
#LAFC and the entire MLS community mourn the loss of Sigi Schmid, @MLS’s all time winningest coach.
