Guinea is closing in on a deal with the ex-Togo coach to succeed Michel Dussuyer.
Paulo Duarte
Paulo Duarte could be set to take the helm of the Syli National in the coming days. The Portuguese tactician reportedly tops the shortlist of candidates and is seen as the frontrunner to succeed Michel Dussuyer as head coach of Guinea's national team.
Duarte is edging closer to the Syli National bench. According to several sources, the Guinean Football Federation has made its choice, turning to the former Burkina Faso and Togo manager to replace Michel Dussuyer, whose contract was not renewed. Duarte's name is believed to have been preferred over other shortlisted candidates such as Hubert Velud, Raoul Savoy, Patrice Beaumelle, and Amir Abdou.
Negotiations between both parties are already underway. However, salary expectations remain a sticking point. Feguifoot has reportedly set a monthly salary cap of €30,000, which would cover the head coach and his two assistants. This budget framework does not fully satisfy Duarte, who is demanding a salary above that ceiling.
Paulo Duarte serait le candidat retenu par la Fédération Guinéenne de Football succéder à Michel Dessuyer à la tête du Syli national.
