It can be recalled that the 49-year-old Spanish specialist left the post of head coach of the Belgian national team in December after the Red Devils failed to overcome the group stage in the 2022 World Cup. The team finished third in a quartet with Morocco, Croatia and Canada and did not qualify for the playoffs.
In turn, Portugal were also left without a mentor after the World Cup. After being knocked out in the quarter-finals by Morocco, Fernando Santos left the national team.
