The end for Patrice Neveu. The French coach, who was in the middle of preparations for the Panthères training camp ahead of their friendly against Guinea in Lisbon, has been sacked as coach.
"In view of the latest results recorded by our Panthères national team, the Minister of Sport, the President of FEGAFOOT and the national coach have agreed to cease all collaboration", stated Pierre-Alain Mounguengui, President of the Gabonese Football Federation.
Thierry Mouyouma, a former Gabonese international who has since returned to coaching, has been appointed to replace Neveu. He will be supported by two other former internationals, Daniel Cousin and Eric Mouloungui, general manager and assistant manager respectively.
