Chris Coleman Says 2018 World Cup Campaign Will Be His Last As Wales Boss |PoliFocus

Chris Coleman says the 2018 World Cup campaign will be his last as Wales manager, BBC has reported.

Coleman has been in charge of Wales in 38 internationals.


Having led Wales to a historic semi-final at Euro 2016, Coleman's stock is at an all-time high.

The 46-year-old is contracted until the end of the next World Cup, with his team playing their first qualifier at home to Moldova on 5 September.

"I am sure this will be my last campaign whether we qualify or not," said Coleman.

"That will be six or seven years in the job, which is a long time. So I think this will be my last hit, at it so I will give it my best shot, but I would not consider going anywhere else. I want to see this through.

"There's success in this team, I think, because they're at a good age. But I'll certainly give everything I've got in this next campaign. I'll make sure they do."

Coleman has overseen a remarkable transformation in Wales' - and his own - fortunes since his appointment in January 2012.
