Igor Stimac has been relieved of his duties as the head coach of the Indian national football team after disappointing results in the Asian Cup and FIFA World Cup qualifiers. His tenure, which began in 2019, was marred by criticism over the team’s lackluster performance and inability to secure key victories. The All India Football Federation (AIFF) is now seeking a new coach with a strong international track record to rebuild the team’s confidence and competitiveness on the global stage. This leadership change is seen as crucial for the future of Indian football.
