Carlos Cordeiro (born 1956) is a sports executive. He was the president of the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) from February 10, 2018[1] until March 12, 2020[2] when he resigned after criticism[3] over the legal stance taken by U.S. Soccer under his administration towards the U.S. women's national team.

Biography[edit]

Cordeiro was born to a Colombian mother and father of Indo-Portuguese descent [4] in Bombay. He moved to Miami at the age of 15 and is a graduate of Harvard University, where he earned an AB and MBA. Prior to joining the USSF in 2007 as an independent director, Cordeiro was a partner at Goldman Sachs and an independent director at BHP.[1][5]
