Vlatko Andonovski will replace Jill Ellis as the manager of the U.S. women's national team. 

Ellis, who won back-to-back World Cups with the USWNT, retired in October.

The 43-year-old Andonovski has previously won two titles with FC Kansas City in the NWSL.

"His tactical flexibility and knowledge is tremendous. Even being in the NWSL, I don't think he's really able to put on his full arsenal of what he knows," said Megan Rapinoe.
