A new destiny gains strength for Roberto Martínez

Roberto Martinez53 years old, could have a new destiny on the national team benches. The Spanish coach is one of the candidates being considered Saudi Arabia to take charge of his national team, as reported by Matteo Moretto on Radio MARCA. The coach, who led Portugal until the 2026 World Cup, thus appears again on the radar of a national team.

This is not the first time that Roberto Martínez’s name has been linked to Saudi Arabia. Last October, the Portuguese newspaper ‘A Bola’ already reported the interest of the Saudi federation and even pointed to a possible agreement between both parties. However, the continuity of Georgios Donis at the head of the team ended up complicating the operation and left the Spaniard’s arrival in the air. They seek to seduce him with a long-term project with the 2034 World Cup in which they are hosting as the main attraction.

Now, Martínez’s name is once again on the table, although at the moment there is no closed agreement or a final decision. His international experience, with stints leading Belgium and Portugal, makes him a candidate with the potential to take on the Saudi project. It is also being heard for the United States, now that Pochettino is leaving.
