Austin FC has appointed Andy Loughnane as its chief executive officer, a move that consolidates the club’s business and soccer operations under a single executive.
Unified leadership structure
In his expanded role, Loughnane will supervise both the commercial side of the franchise and the on‑field strategy, while a newly created sporting director position will report directly to him.
Anthony Precourt, who founded the club in 2019, will transition to chairman of the board and retain a seat on Major League Soccer’s Board of Governors, focusing on long‑term strategy and partnership development.
The reorganization reflects a broader ambition to deepen community ties, leverage Austin’s growing sports ecosystem, and position the club for sustained success on and off the pitch.
