According to multiple Belgian media outlets including “The Standard” and “The Flag”, the Belgian Football Association is very satisfied with Domenico Tedesco. Regardless of the result against France, he will remain in charge after the European Championships.
Since taking over from Roberto Martinez as Belgium manager in early 2023, Tedesco and his team have impressed the Belgian FA with their quality and professionalism. After leading Belgium to a perfect record in qualifying for Euro 2024, Tedesco signed a contract extension in March, committing him to the team until the 2026 World Cup.
Although Belgium’s performance at the European Championships has yet to meet expectations, Tedesco’s position seems secure. His substitutions in Stuttgart on Wednesday even drew jeers from Belgian fans, but this does not appear to have affected his position. The FA sees no reason to doubt Tedesco. On the contrary, in informal conversations, the 38-year-old coach has been fully defended. Several sources within the FA have assured the media that his contract will run until 2026. The Italian coach is also not looking to end his partnership with the Belgian FA.
The Belgian FA is looking at the bigger picture and doesn’t want to rely solely on the results and performance at this European Championships. The FA believes the team’s first two group matches were positive, the atmosphere within the squad has improved significantly, and the players are united, all of which are seen as positives. The Belgian FA wants to work with Tedesco on a long-term basis and hope he can further revitalize the team.
