Former Senegal national team boss Aliou Cissé is in advanced discussions with the Angolan Football Federation over the possibility of becoming the next head coach of the Angola national football team.

The 48-year-old tactician recently parted ways with the Libya national football team, opening the door for a potential new challenge in African football. Negotiations between Cissé and Angolan officials are believed to be progressing well, with both sides exploring the framework of a deal that could see the experienced coach take charge of the Palancas Negras in the near future.

Cissé built a strong reputation during his time with the Senegal national football team, guiding the West African nation to historic success, including their first-ever continental triumph at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations. His leadership and tactical discipline transformed Senegal into one of Africa’s most respected national sides.

If the agreement is finalized, Cissé would be tasked with continuing Angola’s football development while aiming to strengthen the team’s competitiveness in continental competitions.

For now, talks remain ongoing, but a new chapter could soon begin for one of Africa’s most respected coaches.
