Morocco offers Velda an enticing salary package and the allure of a dreamlike city to help him move past the tumultuous situation involving Rubiales.
With all paths to success now open for the Spanish coach, Jorge Villeda is embarking on a new and distinct chapter in Morocco following a tumultuous stint with the Spanish women's national team. Villeda, recently dismissed despite winning the World Cup due to strained relations with players, particularly exacerbated by the Luis Rubiales and Jennifer Hermoso incident, is now eyeing fresh goals in Morocco. According to the Spanish network "Relevo," Villeda's focus includes qualifying for the Olympic Games, triumphing in the Women's Africa Cup of Nations, and advancing the team, with considerable fan expectations. Success in these endeavors could see a significant boost in Villeda's salary to 400 thousand euros, surpassing his earnings in Spain. Despite financial incentives, Villeda values the sense of security and tranquility he finds in Morocco, away from the controversies that surrounded him in Spain. Being in an Islamic country like Morocco, Villeda anticipates a more serene daily life. Residing in Rabat, where he serves as the coach of the women's national team and coordinator of the youth teams, Villeda benefits from top-notch facilities provided by the Moroccan university. His amenities include housing, transportation, security, and access to a sports city near the capital with multiple fields, tennis courts, sports halls, and various facilities, offering an environment conducive to his success and a chance to leave behind the challenges of his past coaching experience in Spain.
