Inter Miami Coach Hoyos Suspended for Late Kickoffs

Major League Soccer fined Inter Miami CF and head coach Guillermo Hoyos undisclosed amounts and suspended Hoyos for one match due to repeated violations of the Late Kickoff Policy, with the suspension to be served in the upcoming game against CF Montréal. The league’s policy requires teams and coaches to be on the field ready to start on time, and it imposes escalating fines and suspensions for repeated infractions. Miami’s latest sanction follows a string of late starts, part of broader concerns about performance that have included a five-game winless run. Hoyos has publicly taken responsibility for the club’s slide, acknowledging the impact of tough results on the team’s mindset. If reports are correct, Hoyos could be replaced by Cristian “Kily” Gonzalez soon, signaling a potential coaching change alongside the discipline. The disciplinary action was widely reported across outlets, highlighting the league’s emphasis on punctuality in addition to on-field performance.
