Former Lights FC coach Eric Wynalda hinted who his successor might be on Twitter.
The Lights will play most of their games against Los Angeles Galaxy II, Orange County SC, San Diego Loyal SC and Phoenix Rising FC when their season resumes.
The USL Championship revealed more details from its return-to-play plan Wednesday, including that it wants every team to complete a 16-game season before the playoffs.
The United Soccer League Championship will allow full-team contact training beginning Wednesday, but the Lights FC is uncertain whether it will dive in right away.
The Lights FC are one step closer to stepping on the field, though the team still needs to hire a coach first.
Lights FC coach Eric Wynalda was fired for a rules violation and not because of financial issues caused by the coronavirus pandemic, owner Brett Lashbrook said.
The Lights fired Eric Wynalda on Wednesday after one season as the team’s coach. Owner Brett Lashbrook declined to give a reason for the firing.
The United Soccer League Championship, which features the Las Vegas Lights FC, voted Thursday in favor of returning to play with a tentative start date of July 11.
