Jorge Jesus is set to be appointed Portugal coach after Roberto Martínez stepped down in the wake of their World Cup exit.
The Portuguese manager will succeed Roberto Martínez, who departed after his contract expired following Portugal’s elimination from the World Cup by Spain.
Jorge Jesus, 71, joins as a free agent and will sign a four-year contract with the FPF through to June 2030.
The 71-year-old Jesus has reached “full agreement” with the Portuguese Football Federation and will be unveiled at a press conference on Friday in Lisbon, a source told AFP on Thursday.
Jesus left the Saudi club Al-Nassr last May and is set to sign a four-year contract, running until the 2030 World Cup to be co-hosted by Portugal, Spain, and Morocco.
His managerial stints overseas have included Brazilian club Flamengo, Turkey’s Fenerbahce and Saudi clubs Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr, where he coached Ronaldo.
Following Portugal’s elimination on Monday, the 41-year-old five-time Ballon d’Or winner confirmed this sixth World Cup would be his last but did not reveal whether he intended to extend his international career.
