Andre Villas-Boas will be the third Portuguese coach in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, which will be held at the end of the year. After Fernando Santos for Portugal and Paulo Pinto for South Korea, the former OM coach is preparing to replace Waheed Halilhodzic at the helm of the Atlas Lions.
The Portuguese coach is preparing to lead the second selection for his coaching career, after a brief experience with the British Virgin Islands national team between 1999 and 2000. Portista reached an agreement with officials of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation last week.
The latter is waiting for Vahid Halilhodzic’s dismissal to be completed to formalize this major change in the den a few months before the 2022 World Cup.
Returning to Morocco after a few months of vacation, the Bosnian already knew he was leaving the national team. ” When you are a coach, you are constantly under pressure that some people find difficult to bear, but I am ready for anything‘, he said earlier this week. The formalization of his departure is imminent, and it is expected that he will be no later than next Monday after the last meeting to discuss his termination compensation.
Recently, Vahid Halilhodzic revealed his future destination, admitting that he had already received a very concrete offer without specifying which one. We only know that before joining Morocco, the Bosnian spent a few days in Croatia where he met friends but also leaders of Dinamo Zagreb.
