RSL name assistant Jeff Cassar as new man in chargeReal Salt Lake are replacing Jason Kreis with one of the safest bets in Major League Soccer: His right hand man. The club announced Wednesday that it has promoted longtime goalkeeper coach Jeff Cassar to head coach in Salt Lake City, one week after Kreis left the club to lead 2015 expansion side New York City FC. The deal is for multiple years, RSL president Bill Manning told the Salt Lake Tribune. Cassar, 39, becomes just the third coach in franchise history after a nine-year run for Kreis that transformed the organization and won an MLS Cup in 2009. Cassar has been on board for all of it – the MLS Cup, the 2010-11 CONCACAF Champions League run and the team’s appearance in MLS Cup earlier this month – after he was hired just three weeks into Kreis’ tenure in 2007. www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2013/12/18/real-salt-lake-promote-longtime-assistant-jeff-cassar-replace-departed-head-
