French-Bosnian Vahid Halilhodzic will reportedly no longer coach the Moroccan national team, and will be replaced soon, said French media outlet Sport.fr.
The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) is eyeing Portuguese coach Andre Villas-Boas to coach the national team for the upcoming sporting events, added the same source.
Villas-Boas began his coaching career as an assistant coach for Jose Mourinho at Chelsea and Inter Milan, then as a coach for the English clubs Chelsea and Tottenham, Zenith Saint-Petersburg in Russia, Shanghai, and Marseille Olympique.
FRMF’s president Faouzi Lekjaa held a meeting on Wednesday with the French-Bosnian coach, during which they discussed a set of things related to the national team.
In previous games, Halilhodzic was criticized for his tactics and choices, described as “wrong moves,” in addition to issues with international players Hakim Ziyech and Noussair Mazraoui.
Lekjaa told Hesport that he is set to meet again with the national coach this upcoming Monday in order to hold talks as well as decide on his future ahead of the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup.
More recently, Halilhodzic raised the interest of a club in Europe, after being able to qualify the national team for the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup.
According to the Croatian daily Jutarnji, the Bosnian-French coach is attracting the attention of the Croatian club Dinamo Zagreb, which is planning to recruit him at a time when rumors arose about his dismissal from the national team.
