Ex-Iran Coach Queiroz Shortlisted to Lead Qatar: Report


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Qatar Football Association (QFA) will part company with head coach Felix Sanchez and Carlos Queiroz is a candidate to replace the Spaniard.

The QFA has announced that Sanchez’s contract, which expires on December 31, 2022, will not be renewed, and as a result both parties will move forward to start a new chapter.

“QFA and Felix Sanchez have decided together not to extend into a new contract,” the statement reads.

The QFA confirmed it would decide on a replacement shortly and there have been rumors that former Iran coach Queiroz is a candidate to take the role. An announcement though is not likely to be made until the end of the Persian Gulf Cup.
