Ten Hag and Henry among candidates for Belgium national team job: Who's the favorite?

Belgium avoided direct relegation from League A of the Nations League, securing a playoff against Ukraine in March 2025. However, these results have left the Belgian Football Federation dissatisfied with Domenico Tedesco, prompting a search for his replacement.

Details: According to Sacha Tavolieri, a shortlist for the position has been drawn up, including former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, former France Olympic team coach Thierry Henry, and Mark van Bommel.

The favorite appears to be the Frenchman, Thierry Henry, as both the federation leadership and the players reportedly see him as the priority candidate.

Reminder: In December, Henry stated he was ready to take on a club-level coaching role but emphasized that the job must be suitable for both him and his family.
