FIFA have released a five-man shortlist for The Best Men’s Coach award for 2022.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti deservedly made the cut for the award after winning a Champions League and La Liga double last season, becoming the first coach in history to claim the league title in all of Europe’s top five leagues.

This year’s awards will be judged based on performances from August 2021 up until the conclusion of the World Cup in December 2022.

France coach Didier Deschamps, is also up for the award after guiding France to the World Cup final.

Morocco’s head coach Walid Regragui did an amazing job as he led Morocco to the semi-final of the World Cup – for the first time for an Africa side.
