The suspense remains as to the identity of our future coach. But the chances of seeing Julen Lopetegui succeed Domenico Tedesco are dwindling.
The time taken by the federation to dismiss Domenico Tedesco suggested that his successor would be known quickly. But it will obviously take longer than for the announcement of the new coach of the Red Flames, who lost their coach on the same day as the Red Devils.
Even before Tedesco’s departure, many names have been mentioned to replace him, from Thierry Henry to Rudi Garcia to Mark van Bommel, Erik ten Hag, Kasper Hjulmand, Sergio Conceição or Julen Lopetegui.
One less candidate?
It’s time to refine this list. A little earlier today, we told you about the increasingly slim chances of seeing Rudi Garcia sit on the Belgian bench.
-Sometimes it’s the potential coaches themselves who cause the trail to fade. This is what the Belgian Union is moving towards in the Julen Lopetegui file. Het Nieuwsblad reports from a Spanish source that the former La Roja coach would not be inclined to accept a Belgian proposal if the opportunity arose.
A hard blow for our decision-makers who had made the 58-year-old Basque, dismissed by West Ham two weeks ago, one of his main targets. The search for the rare pearl continues.
