And now? What happens to Fernando Santos after Portugal are eliminated from the World Cup and set the bar for the title? Fernando Gomes, president of the FPF, does not like to tear up contracts and the coach thinks he is able to continue. But there are situations that escape the reach of both: among them, Ronaldo’s decision to continue representing the national team (or not) hinges on Santos’ continuity, after he clashed with the coach over his replacement status.
According to DN, the president of the Portuguese Football Federation awaits reports about Portugal’s participation in the World Cup and then talks to the coach. Not that the coach’s future depends on it, as the captain is aware of everything that has happened in Qatar. But he wants to analyze them in the presence of Fernando Santos and thus jointly assess whether there are conditions for leaving everything as it is until 2024, the year of the end of the contractual relationship.
