Following the Ivory Coast Elephants’ triumph in the final of the 34th Africa Cup of Nations, Emerse Faé stands out by winning the award for the best coach of the tournament.
The curtain has closed on the Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) 2023 this Sunday, February 11, 2024, with Ivory Coast seizing the coveted title of the tournament.
In a dramatic turnaround for the national Ivorian team, Emerse Faé, promoted to interim coach following the departure of Jean-Louis Gasset, has led the Elephants to glory. Under his leadership, the team achieved a flawless run, recording four straight victories.
This remarkable feat has earned Emerse Faé the title of best coach of the 2023 edition of the CAN. His exceptional journey at the helm of the team makes him one of the few former internationals to win the CAN title as a coach.
