Queiroz’s contract on the verge of extension for the Asian Cup
While it was previously announced that a decision regarding Queiroz’s contract with the national team would be made after the World Cup, we have heard that the possibility of this coach staying for the Asian Cup in Qatar is very high.
Queiroz’s current contract with the national team and the football federation is for three months, but the likelihood of seeing Carlos on the national team’s bench after the World Cup is high. It is even rumored that agreements have been reached in this regard, although they are not official, and in any case, the parties should negotiate more formally and reach an agreement after the World Cup. It is predicted that if the national team achieves favorable results in Qatar, there will be no major issues in continuing the collaboration.
The Iranian team has about a year after the World Cup to prepare for the Asian Cup. Previously, there was talk of having an Iranian coach for the Asian Cup, but the reality is that currently, there is no good Iranian option, and many experts believe that even if Queiroz does not achieve results in the World Cup, it would be better to replace him with another foreign coach.
It is worth mentioning that the Asian Cup will be held in January 2024 in Qatar.
