Sebastien Migne, the 46-year-old Frenchman who guided Kenya to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt after a 15-year absence, has been appointed as the new coach of Equatorial Guinea.
Published on November 7, 2019, Migne's appointment comes after he was sacked as Harambee Stars coach, with his assistant Francis Kimanzi taking over.
He replaces Angel Lopez, who resigned in September, and has been living in Kenya with his family since his sacking.
“New mission, new country, new challenge. Official, I’m the new coach of Equatorial Guinea,” Migne posted on his official Facebook page.
He recently travelled to Equatorial Guinea and was unveiled as the new coach earlier on Thursday.
