Morocco’s Olympic Coach Sektioui Eyed by Syria After Bronze Medal Success

Syria has a target in mind. His name is: Tarik Sektioui, coach of the Moroccan Olympic team. Syrian football has "decided to choose Sektioui and is trying to contact him to present him with an official offer," believes WinWin, adding that the Syrian football officials should contact the Moroccan coach to present their offer and engage in negotiations with him.

This interest is explained by the historic journey of the Atlas Lions at the football tournament of the Paris Olympic Games. Morocco reached the third place in the history of the competition and won its first bronze medal, after crushing Egypt (6-0), thus joining Ghana (Atlanta 1996 Games) and Nigeria (Rio de Janeiro 2016 Games).

Born on May 13, 1977 in Fez, Tarik Sektioui is a former Moroccan international, who has become a coach. In addition to his skills as a former player, Sektioui has a rich history in team management. He has coached MAS Fès as well as Union Touarga, RS Berkane, Moghreb Tétouan, Wydad Fès, and Emirates Club.
