“I have already informed the players of the national team and the president of the Korea Football Federation about my departure. But the decision that I would end my work with the South Korean national team after the 2022 World Cup was made back in September. Now I will rest, and then we will see what happens next, ”said Bentou.

The 53-year-old Portuguese captained the South Korean national team in 2018. Since then, the team under his leadership has played 60 matches (38 wins, 13 draws, 9 losses).

We add that Bento's departure has already become the fourth coaching resignation for the 2022 World Cup. Earlier, Carlos Queiroz (Iran), Gerardo Martino (Mexico), Roberto Martinez (Belgium) and Otto Addo (Ghana) left their positions.
