Former Chelsea and Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas 'being considered to become next Morocco manager' amid rumours Vahid Halilhodzic is about to be sacked... despite leading the country to the World Cup

Former Chelsea and Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas is reportedly being lined up as a potential replacement for Vahid Halilhodzic as Morocco manager.

Halilhodzic is set to leave his role as head of the Moroccan national side - despite guiding them to qualification for the World Cup in Qatar - amid his dispute with key players including Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea and Ajax defender Noussair Mazraoui.

The Royal Moroccan Football Federation was earlier this week forced to deny rumours in the country's media that it had sacked Halilhodzic.
