Eric Gerets, shortly after parting ways with the Moroccan national team, wasted no time finding a new opportunity. He signed a three-year contract with Lekhwiya, the reigning Qatari champions, a club that is reportedly under the ownership of the PSG boss.
It seems that Gerets is planning to retire after his four-year stint in Qatar. He has expressed a particular interest in coaching Marseille (OM) in France, stating that he had turned down an offer from PSG before Ancelotti’s arrival. Gerets believes that Marseille is the only French club where he envisions coaching.
Additionally, Gerets mentioned his attachment to Standard in Belgium, stating that he could see himself returning to the club. He expressed a desire to finish his coaching career in Liège, and while he won’t consider coaching any other Belgian club, he remains open to the possibility if it involves Standard.
Ultimately, Gerets emphasizes that the decision will lie with the management, both at Standard in Belgium and potentially in Marseille after his contract in Qatar concludes.
