Friedel retired as a player last year after spending 17 years
in England, where he represented Liverpool, Blackburn Rovers,
Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur.
"I look forward to the opportunity to help develop our young
players into professionals and full internationals," the
44-year-old, who earned 82 caps and appeared at three World
Cups, said in a U.S. Soccer statement.
"I'm excited to work with the entire group of committed Youth
National Team staff members to increase our levels of
development here in the United States."
