Belgian Football Federation has relieved Marc Wilmots from his job as the Head Coach of the National Team.
This is according to a statement by the Federation’s website.
“The Royal Belgian Football Association have made an agreement with Marc Wilmots to end his contract that lasted until 2018.
“We would like to thank Marc Wilmots for his work during the last four years.
“With Marc Wilmots as a head coach, the Red Devils have climbed from the 54th position to the top of the FIFA World Ranking.
He managed to win 34 games out of 51, including eight draws. Above all, the fans have reinstalled their love for the Belgian Red Devils during this period.
“The RBFA’s Technical Commission have made an evaluation of the recent UEFA Euro 2016 and have declared that the intended goals have not been reached.
“There is a common sense that the team needs a new impulse to lead this group towards a top result at a major tournament.
“The Belgian FA will immediately start the procedure to find a new head coach, in a transparent way. The idea is to start the upcoming games in September with a new coach, beginning with an international friendly game in Brussels against Spain on the 1st of September.”
Wilmots, 47, had been leading the national team since 2012 and managed to guide the team to the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup. (channelstv.com)
