Portugal football manager, Fernando Santos, has been sacked following the team’s World Cup exit.

Portugal is one of the favourites to win the competition in Qatar but the team was knocked out by Morocco in the quarter-finals.

According to The Sun, Santos has led the team successfully to the top of their World Cup group before hammering Switzerland 6-1 in the round of 16.

Portugal won two of their group games as they beat Ghana and Uruguay, although they did lose to South Korea.
