Graham Arnold is set to step down as Socceroos manager before Australia’s next World Cup qualifier in October, AAP reports.
Sources familiar with negotiations told AAP that Arnold has been in dialogue with Football Australia this week, ironing out an exit strategy from a role he has held since 2018.
Arnold’s departure comes after the Socceroos picked up just one point from a possible six in their opening two games of third round World Cup qualifying.
Australia fell to Bahrain earlier this month and then were held scoreless in a 0-0 draw with Indonesia.
FA declined to comment when contacted by AAP.
