In the hearts of Belgian supporters, Robert Martinez hasn’t scored many points in recent months. Eliminated with the Red Devils in the group stage of the last World Cup, the former coach had made the decision to leave the Belgian selection. Putting an end to a long story finally never crowned. A record of any trophy that does not scare off potential employers for the Spanish tactician. According to our colleagues from the Nieuwsblad, Roberto Martinez might well become the coach of Portugal in the coming days.
From one golden generation to another there is only one step. At least for a trainer. Whether Cristiano Ronaldo seems inevitably on the decline, Portugal can count on many other talents. A veritable nugget mine which seems destined for good years but which has been looking for a guide since the departure of Fernando Santos. And if the negotiations have been going well for several weeks, the lucky winner might already be found in the person of our former national coach. A current contract until the 2026 World Cup is mentioned. If he were to be inducted into his new role, Roberto Martinez would take up a new challenge full of promise but also of risk.
