Portugal appoint new boss
July 11, 2008
Sir Alex Ferguson has lost his second hand man Carlos Queiroz to Portugal. Carlos has signed for Portugal and is already looking ahead to the world cup.
Carlos spoke about his departure…
”I am very proud and honoured to be able to go back and serve my country. This is a very special position that any professional would want. The first big objective is to qualify for the World Cup in South Africa in 2010. I also want to thank Manchester United for the agreement reached, which made my return to Portugal possible.”
The Portuguese federation has labelled Carlos as one of the best coaches in Portugal and were happy to appoint him…
“Carlos Queiroz is unquestionably one of the top Portuguese coaches and was my first choice to be head coach. Although I have never worked with him because he was no longer with the national set-up when I arrived, I have followed his career with much interest. The experience he has gained in all the places he has worked will be important in helping us achieve the success we want.”
