Porto names Peseiro as new head coach


Porto have announced the appointment of Jose Peseiro as
coach on an 18-month deal with an option for an extra year.

Peseiro left his role at Egyptian side Al Ahly this week and
has now been confirmed as the replacement for Julen
Lopetegui, who was dismissed on January 8.

Porto currently sit third in the Primeira Liga, five points
adrift of leaders Sporting CP following a 1-0 defeat at Vitoria
Guimaraes on Saturday.

The 55-year-old will be joined by Alexandre Santos, Ricardo
Dionisio, Rui Barros and Daniel Correia, who will form his
backroom staff.

Peseiro was previously an assistant coach at Real Madrid
and has been in charge at Sporting, Braga, Panathinaikos
and the Saudi Arabia national team over the course of his
career.
