African national team used to have foreigners coaches as they didn’t believe the coaching capacity of local coaches.
Time come and nations realize that foreign coaches don’t take them far as they wish, some countries decided to try local coaches, this was good initiative as most of them were the players.
For sure, it was the best thing to have such coach who know much about the competition and has experience in what going on in pitch.
Those are the coaches who were players but now are coaches.
Aliou Cisse: A Senegal coach who was a players of Senegal national team, and this man put an emphasis on capabilities of local coaches as he did all the best in and win the last AFCON, this aponed many national team eyes in Africa.
Djamel Belmadi: The Algeria coach who is look like Benzema.
Kaba Diawara: The Guinea coach who has the best time in his career in Guinea national Team.
Rigobert Song: the coach of Cameroon who had unforgettable time in AFCON in 2000-2002.
Walid Regragui: The couch of Marocc national team.
Collin Benjamin: The coach of Namibia national team, the former Hambarg SV defender and was the best captain of national team in 2008.
After performance of those coaches, no doubt the remaining national team that still have foreigners coaches will change their mind.
