Qatar appoint Queiroz as coach until 2026 World Cup in ...
69-year-old took Iran to the tournaments in Brazil, Russia and Qatar
gulfnews.comHere’s what I can share about Carlos Queiroz Maia based on recent reporting:
- He has been associated with Ghana as head coach for the national team as of April 2026, with reports stating he took charge for the World Cup cycle and would oversee the Black Stars at the 2026 finals. This marks a continuation of his international coaching career into a fifth World Cup cycle for a individual coach.[3][10]
- Other sources in 2026 indicate a brief tenure with Oman ended by mutual agreement in March 2026, suggesting a pattern of short stints across national teams around that period.[4][7]
- A 2026 Portuguese-language report confirms Queiroz returning to active duties and moving to the Ghana national team, stating immediate assume of responsibilities.[3]
- Related coverage notes his extensive experience, including previously coaching Iran and Portugal at multiple World Cups, though his 2026 moves reflect a transitional phase across national teams.[2][3]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to a specific country, confirm current status as of today, or pull the latest primary sources in English or Portuguese. Would you like me to do that?
