Del Bosque to leave after Euros
SPAIN coach Vicente del Bosque has confirmed that he plans to stand down after La Roja bid for a third successive triumph at Euro 2016.
“In life you cannot be absolutely sure about anything but it is my intention to continue until France 2016 and then leave,” del Bosque told Spanish newspaper As. “In my case, the federation will make a smooth transition and my plan is to remain involved in football and with the federation.”
Del Bosque is in the process of rebuilding the Spain team following its World Cup disappointment in Brazil.
The reigning champion failed to progress from the group stage and it led to veterans Xabi Alonso, Xavi and David Villa announcing their retirements.
It has begun qualifying for Euro 2016 with a new youthful side that has registered two victories and a loss so far from qualifying in Group C.
Spain won the European Championships in 2008 and 2012.
