Oman Football team coach Silhavy axed

MUSCAT- Oman Football Association has sacked national team coach Jaroslav Silhavy.

The national football governing body announced the news on its official X account and said that the termination of the contract was done by mutual consent of both parties.

Oman had a disappointing start to the third round of 2026 FIFA Asian Qualifiers as they lost both their games to Iraq and South Korea, respectively.

Former national team coach Rasheed Jaber is among the favourites to take over the national team, according to OFA sources.
