Giorgos Donis, the current Al Khaleej coach, has been linked in recent hours with a possible move to the Saudi national team as a replacement for Herve Renard, according to media reports that placed him on a shortlist discussed after recent criticism surrounding the Green Falcons.
However, the available information does not point to any official agreement between the Saudi Arabian Football Federation and Donis. Saudi reports also said Al Khaleej had not received any formal notice regarding the coach, while Donis indicated that talks over renewing his contract with the club are progressing positively.
On the other hand, the Saudi federation had already denied reports about terminating Renard’s contract, which means any talk of a confirmed successor remains unverified for now and the situation is still being monitored pending any new official announcement.
