Belgian FA eyes Vanhaezebrouck and Koeman as open coaching options

Met the dismissal of Rudi Garcia, the Belgian Football Association must again search for a new national team coach for the Rode Duivels within two years, and Sports Director Vincent Mannaert now faces the task of identifying candidates such as Hein Vanhaezebrouck and Ronald Koeman, who are reportedly available.

This is the second time in less than two years that the Belgian FA has to appoint a new head coach.

Vincent Mannaert knows what he has to do in the coming days and weeks, and he will be leading the selection process.

The key question is who the Sports Director could call to fill the vacancy.

Below is a non‑exhaustive overview of coaches who are currently available on the market.

Hein Vanhaezebrouck is listed among the potential candidates.

Ronald Koeman also appears on the shortlist of available managers.

Mannaert is expected to make contact with these names in the days ahead as the federation moves toward a new appointment.
