Jeong Hae-seong, the current head of the competition committee,
was appointed as the chairman of the Korea Football Association’s National Team Strengthening Committee,
which will lead the selection process for the next soccer team head coach.
The Football Association held an executive meeting on the 20th and announced that it had decided to entrust Chairman Chung with the position of Chairman of the Power Strengthening Committee.
Chairman Chung is a person who contributed to Korea’s legend of reaching the semifinals by assisting coach Guus Hiddink in the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. 카지노사이트
The Strengthening Committee is an organization that is involved in the overall management of national teams at each level,
including the appointment, dismissal, and renewal of leaders for the men’s and women’s national teams and national teams for each age group over 18 years old.
Chairman Chung leads the Power Strengthening Committee as the successor to former Chairman Michael Müller (Germany),
who resigned along with former national team coach Jurgen Klinsmann.
Chairman Chung’s urgent task is to find the men’s national team head coach,
which has become vacant amid the worst chaos in history.
While the Football Association dismissed former coach Klinsmann,
taking responsibility for the poor performance and elimination in the semifinals of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup,
the national team will immediately participate in the 2026 North and Central America World Cup Asia 2 during the A-match period in March (18th to 26th).
The 3rd and 4th games (21st and 26th) will be played against Thailand, the most difficult opponent of the preliminary round.
If the process of appointing a new head coach does not speed up,
at least an interim coach should be selected to lead the national team only in the A-match in March.
