Rob Page: Wales manager signs new four-year deal after guiding side to first World Cup in 64 years
Baku, September 13, AZERTAC
Rob Page has been rewarded for his fine work as Wales manager with a new four-year contract, according to Sky Sports.
The former defender, who won 41 caps for Wales, took charge of his country on an interim basis when then-manager Ryan Giggs was arrested in November 2020.
Page was then handed the role full-time, with a contract until the end of the 2022 World Cup, when Giggs stepped down in June 2022.
Page has enjoyed a productive time in charge and led Wales to qualification for the World Cup this winter with a 1-0 win over Ukraine in the play-offs in June.
Wales - who will be competing at the tournament for the first time in 64 years - are in the same group as England, the USA and Iran. Page - who previously served as Wales U21 manager and Giggs' assistant - also led Wales to the last-16 stage at Euro 2020, as well as promotion to the top tier of the Nations League.
