Fort Lauderdale Strikers
On 17 July 2013, it was announced that Kronsteiner had signed as the head coach of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers of the North American Soccer League. Despite leading the Strikers to a surprise Soccer Bowl appearance, the new team ownership announced Kronsteiner would not be returning for 2015.

Kronsteiner rejoined the Strikers as head coach on 30 June 2015. This came after head coach Marcelo Neveleff resigned after nine Spring Season games.

The Fort Lauderdale Strikers didn't want Gunter back the following season. A controversial and prideful figure, the organization and Gunter ended their relationship.

Gunter Kronsteiner is now in Slovakia.
