Bosnia and Herzegovina coach Safet Susic has hinted that is set to leave his role with the national side after his final World Cup 2014 Group F game against Iran.
Successive defeats to Argentina and Nigeria saw Susic’s side crash out of the tournament and with the former Bosnia international’s contract expiring at the end of the tournament, the national team looks set for a new coach for the Euro 2016 qualifying campaign.
“It is going to be difficult for me, but the day will come to bid my farewell to the team,” the 59-year-old tactician told a pre-match press conference.
He added that he expects to make an announcement ‘in the next 10 days’.
Susic also revealed that his focus for now is on Iran and attempting to end a debut campaign which has brought mixed emotions on a high.
“We did something great which no-one has done before,” Susic continued.
“It will be written in history that this generation, together with the coaching staff, reached the World Cup for the first time.
“It won’t be easy, but it is important to say farewell to the World Cup in a nice way.
“One day, analysts will get to understand that we needed a little luck and better referee decisions.”
