The failed man of national football teams around the world became the choice to lead the host of the 2027 Asian Nations Cup.
“Al-Riyadh” newspaper of Saudi Arabia claimed that Carlos Queiroz is close to accepting the responsibility of the head coach of the national football team of this country.
According to Tasnim, according to the report of this newspaper, the contract of Georgios Donis with the Saudi Football Federation will end before the previous date of the 2027 Asian Nations Cup (January 17, 1405), and the officials of this federation consider Queiroz as the main option to lead the Green Falcons (the title of the Saudi national team).
Queiroz has the experience of being the head coach of the national teams of South Africa, UAE, Portugal, Colombia, Egypt, Qatar, Oman and Ghana. He sat on the bench of our country’s national team for a total of 107 matches, and with this coach, Iran failed to advance to the knockout stages of the 2014, 2018 and 2022 World Cups, as well as the finals of the 2015 and 2019 Asian Nations Cups.
Queiroz’s last head coaching experience was with the Ghana national team and he experienced one win, two draws and five defeats in this team.
Saudi Arabia will host the Asian Nations Cup 2027 from January 2 to February 1, 1406, and in this competition, it is grouped with the national teams of Kuwait, Oman and Palestine. This tournament was supposed to be held from January 17 to February 16, 1405, but due to the military tensions between Saudi Arabia and Yemen and the insecurity of the host country, the Nations Cup was postponed to next year.
