The New England Revolution have made additional changes to their coaching staff following last week's abrupt resignation of longtime coach Bruce Arena after he was placed on administrative leave by Major League Soccer because of allegations he made insensitive and inappropriate remarks. The team announced Tuesday night that Clint Peay, who had been serving as coach of New England's reserve MLS Next Pro Revolution II team since 2019, has been elevated to interim head coach of the MLS club. Arena's longtime assistant Richie Williams was originally given the interim title after Arena was placed on leave last month.
