U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati and Bob Bradley met in Los Angeles on Thursday, but no decision was made regarding Bradley's future as head coach of the U.S. national team, according to a source with knowledge of the discussions.

The source also indicated that the meeting was never intended to produce a decision regarding Bradley's status, and instead was meant to be a debriefing of the U.S. team's performance at the World Cup, the second such meeting the two have had since the Americans were eliminated by Ghana in the second round.

No timetable has been set for when Bradley's situation will be resolved.

But with his current contract expiring in December, and given the fact the U.S. has a friendly against Poland scheduled in October, as well as two more matches in the planning stages, there is increasing urgency to resolve the U.S. manager's situation.

Bradley has expressed interest in coaching in Europe, and has been linked with the vacant managerial position at English Premier League's Aston Villa.
