After being overlooked by the Nigeria Football Federation for the Super Eagles job, Portuguese tactician Rui Vitoria has been appointed the new national team coach of Egypt on a four-year contract.
The Egyptian Football Association named Vitoria as the new coach of the Pharaohs on Monday night to replace Ehab Galal who was sacked a few weeks ago.
Vitoria was among the coaches lined up for the Super Eagles job following the sack of Gernot Rohr in December, before the NFF appointed his countryman Jose Peseiro.
