Renard regrets as Saudi look for quick fix ahead of World Cup

LONDON: They say in football that you should never go back and Herve Renard must be thinking about that at the moment as his second spell in charge of Saudi Arabia came to an end on Friday. The Frenchman returned in October 2024 but lasted just 18 months. A more sober statistic is that there are less than two months before the Green Falcons kick off the 2026 World Cup against Uruguay on June 15 in Miami. He won’t get a chance then to engineer another shock opening win over South American opposition to rival that famous Argentina victory at the 2022 World Cup.
