BRUSSELS: Belgian national team manager Roberto Martinez’s contract has been extended, officials confirmed on Wednesday , more than a fortnight after it was first reported.
“The coronavirus crisis delayed the process somewhat, but the contract extension is now confirmed and official. Martinez, whose contract was up after this year’s European Championship, which has been shifted back a year because of the coronavirus crisis, is due to address a news conference later on Wednesday but added in the same statement: “Because of the Euro 2020 postponement we could not possibly end our collaboration already now.“The Belgian FA has an ambitious plan that I look forward to with great enthusiasm, both in the short and long term.
Martinez, 46, had already said in interviews over the last month he wanted to continue in charge in order to take Belgium to Euro 2021, where they are drawn in Group B and will play Denmark, Finland and Russia.
