Bangkok -โค Shin Tae-yong is among the candidates being โconsidered to become โขthe next โฃheadโ coachโ of the Thai โnational team, following the dismissalโข of Masatada โขIshii.The Football Associationโ of Thailand (FAT) terminated IshiiS contract on Tuesday,October 21,after he had served โฃas coach since 2023.
The searchโข forโ aโค new leader for the War Elephant Team comes at a crucial juncture for Thai football, asโ the nation aims to strengthenโ its position in Southeast Asianโค competition and beyond. Shinโข Tae-yong, who coached the Indonesian national team from 2020-2025, โpresents a compellingโข option due to his familiarity with theโ region’s football landscape and broader Asian play.
