The former coach of the national team, who was also president of the Saint-Louis League, Amara Touré, returns to the technical direction of the Senegal national team. Indeed, at the end of the meeting which took place this Monday, the former Senegalese coach was officially presented as the new head of the elite department of technical direction, replacing Aliou Cissé, the former national coach who held this position.
« I thank the national coach who chose my modest person. I’m coming back to my natural family.”declared Amara Traoré at the microphone of wiwsport. He clarified that he accepted this role with pride, emphasizing that he is first and foremost a coach by training. After leaving the presidency of the Saint-Louis League six months ago, he rediscovered his passion for coaching.
His appointment to this position is strategic. In fact, he replaces Aliou Cissé, because it is usually the coach of the A team who occupies this position. However, with the arrival of Pape Thiaw at the head of the national team, it was decided to release him from this responsibility so that he can fully concentrate on his role as coach. Amara Touré explained that he would supervise all the coaches of the different national teams in order to improve the overall performance of Senegalese football. » My goal is to go higher, to be more demanding, more efficient and sharper. It will be difficult, but I am ready to take on this challenge “added the former Lions coach.
