Walid Regragui has been awarded the title of Best Coach at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The technical committee of the Confederation of African Football has chosen Walid Regragui, the coach of the Moroccan national team, as the Best Coach at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, which was hosted by Morocco and in which Senegal secured the title.
This decision reflects Regragui’s leadership of the Atlas Lions to the final match, where he showcased excellent tactics and a high competitive spirit throughout the tournament. Some estimations suggest that his sportsmanship during the final, where he asked his players to leave the pitch after dramatic events, played a significant role in his selection over Aliou Cissé, the coach of the Senegal team, by the technical committee.
