Hervé Renard suspends his press conference out of respect for Islam

For the former coach of Morocco, "it is a matter of respect for me, and a culture of openness to all beliefs", adding that he considered it a "duty to show my consideration for religions and for Islam" and emphasizing that this religion represents an "important foundation" in his current country of residence as well as in those where he has worked in the past.

Hervé Renard reminded Al3omk of his openness to the spiritual dimension, the fruit of his many years of work in Muslim countries. On the sporting level, the French technician has just qualified Saudi Arabia for the final phase of the 2026 World Cup. This is his second consecutive qualification with the Green Falcons, after the 2022 edition in Qatar marked by a victory against Argentina.
