FOOTBALL AFCON massive upsets calls for a reshape in future FIFA rankings
AFCON 2023 upsets the question of FIFA rankings' accuracy, spotlighting the need for a system overhaul to reflect teams' true capabilities more precisely.
Amid this turmoil, Herve Renard emerges as the beacon of hope for a resurgence. Currently at the helm of France's women's team, Renard's track record speaks volumes—boasting an impressive resume that includes steering two different nations, Zambia and the Ivory Coast, to African Cup of Nations glory. His name now buzzes through the grapevine as Egypt's top pick for their next managerial maestro, according to Kora Plus.
With a legacy that towers over the continent, Egypt holds the title of the most decorated nation in AFCON history, clinching the coveted trophy seven times. However, their recent performance fell drastically short of their illustrious standards.

This has set the stage for potential dramatic changes, as the Egyptian Football Association aims to align with a leader capable of restoring their former glory.
The clock ticks, but Egypt is not in a rush. The focus now shifts to whether Renard will cast his lot with the Pharaohs, leaving behind his current charge. With the next critical engagement—a World Cup qualifier against Burkina Faso—not until June 3, the saga of Egypt's quest for a new commander has ample chapters yet to be written.
