The Football Association of Thailand (FAT) announced on its website on Wednesday (July 17th) that Mr. Akira Nishino, the former chief of Japan’s national football, has now been officially appointed the new head coach of Thailand’s national football team and the U23.

 

The FAT went on to say that Mr. Nishino “will lead the ‘War Elephants’ to compete in the upcoming World Cup 2022 Asian Qualifiers round 2, Sea Games and the AFC U23 Championship 2020 Finals.”

 

The FAT described Nishino’s appointment as “a historic milestone for Thai football” as he will be the first ever Asian head coach “to helm Thailand National Team.”
