Egypt Parts Ways with Portuguese Football Manager Carlos Queiroz

Egypt parted ways with Portuguese manager of the national team Carlos Queiroz after failing to qualify for Qatar 2022." the Egyptian Football Association announced on Sunday.

Egypt’s World Cup dreams were shattered following a penalty shootout defeat to Senegal that saw Mohamed Salah, Ahmed Sayed Zizo, and Mostafa Mohamed all miss from the spot.

After failing to reach the World Cup, Queiroz finds his contract as Egypt’s manager terminated as per a clause in his contract with the EFA that states so.

“It’s time for me to leave the leadership of Egypt to someone else,” Queiroz in the post-match press conference.

“Egypt will start preparing for the upcoming tournaments as well as the qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup," he added.
