TUNIS: The Libyan football federation announced Tuesday in a statement posted on Facebook the appointment of AFCON-winner Aliou Cisse as new head coach of the national team. Cisse, widely regarded as one of Africa’s top coaches and winner of the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal in 2022, will lead Libya until 2027, the federation said. “We welcome the best coach in Africa,” the statement said, without providing further details on Cisse’s new contract or its value. He replaces Nasser Al-Hadhiri, who had been appointed in September 2024. The federation said Cisse, 48, will be officially presented to the media on March 13 in Tripoli, ahead of the start of his tenure. Libya did not qualify for the upcoming edition of AFCON, which is set to take place in Morocco next winter. However, they currently sit second in their World Cup qualifying group, and next take on Angola later this month.
