Iraq says it never approached Hossam Hassan to coach.
After Hossam Hassan left the Egypt job, reports linked him to Iraq’s national team, potentially replacing Australian coach Graham Arnold. Ahmed al-Mousawi, a member of the Iraqi Football Association, says no one approached Hassan: the possibility had not been raised inside the association, and Hassan had no offer to reject. Al-Mousawi says there were no negotiations, either. In his telling, the coaching move was in the news before it was even on the federation’s agenda.
