Patrice Neveu, the coach of Mauritania, received the “Coach’s Coup” award from the French Football Federation (FFF) in recognition of his outstanding performance with the Mourabitounes. The award acknowledges French coaches who achieve remarkable results at the national or international level.
Neveu’s notable accomplishment includes guiding Mauritania to qualification for the CHAN 2014, marking a significant achievement in the revival of Mauritanian football. This recognition follows in the footsteps of previous recipients like Pierre Mankowski, who received the award for leading France to victory in the European U20 Championship.
Despite this recognition, there is speculation about Neveu’s future with the Mourabitounes, as his name is mentioned among the candidates for the coaching position with the Gabon Panthers, as indicated by Fegafoot.
