Cape Verde coach Bubista has left the national team after guiding the island nation to a remarkable World Cup debut, signing a two-year contract with Moroccan club RS Berkane as he embarks on the next chapter of his coaching career.

RS Berkane announced on Tuesday the appointment of Pedro Brito, widely known as Bubista, as the club's new head coach on a two-year deal.

He succeeds Tunisian coach Moïne Chaâbani, who has returned to coach his home country's national team following Tunisia's World Cup campaign.

End of a memorable era

The Cape Verde Football Federation thanked Bubista for his "dedication, professionalism and contribution" during his time in charge of the national team.
