Herve Renard extends Morocco deal
Morocco have extended the contract of Frenchman Herve Renard until February 2022, according to the country’s football federation.
Renard was appointed in March 2016 and helped Morocco reach the 2018 World Cup finals this month, their first since 1998.
Morrocco’s football federation chief Fouzi Lekjaa said “Renard’s contract guarantees him to work under the best conditions until 2022 and with different objectives.
“By agreeing the deal we are demonstrating our faith in Renard beyond the World Cup.
“We are saying that we believe that Renard is the right man to take us forward.”
The Frenchman achieved his previous targets as Morocco boss by qualifying and reaching the 2017 Cup of Nations quarterfinals, as grabbing a ticket for next year’s World Cup in Russia.
Herve Renard’s targets are to win the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon as well and qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
