Roberto Martinez is set to step down as Portugal's head coach after the upcoming World Cup, according to talkSPORT.
The coach has reportedly decided against renewing his contract, which expires this July. Martinez's departure is said to be independent of the team's performance at the 2026 World Cup. The Spanish tactician is reportedly considering a return to England and is also open to managing another national team.
The 52-year-old Spaniard has been at the helm of the Portuguese national team since 2023. Prior to that, he managed Belgium from 2016 to 2022. In England, Martinez has previously coached Everton, Wigan, and Swansea.
In the World Cup group stage, Portugal is scheduled to face DR Congo (June 17), Uzbekistan (June 23), and Colombia (June 28).
