Philippe Omar Troussier - Football Coach

Philippe Omar Troussier, (French pronunciation: ; born 21 March 1955) is a French former association football player who was most recently the manager of the Vietnam national football team from February 2023 to March 2024. He led Vietnam to its biggest failure in its modern football history, leading to his termination by the VFF. After a modest playing career as a defender within the French leagues, he moved into management where he started out within the lower echelons of French football, however it was his move to Ivorian team ASEC Mimosas where he started to distinguish himself as a manager after winning several league titles with them. This would soon see him have a long association with African football and particularly their national teams, with Ivory Coast, Nigeria, South Africa and Burkina Faso being teams he managed. His international management career would continue with Japan where he had a successful spell with them by winning the 2000 AFC Asian Cup. Since then, he has returned to club management.
