Boubacar Copa Barry makes a triumphant return to the Ivory Coast national team.

The hero of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations joins the national technical staff with a dual role as goalkeeper coach and second assistant to head coach Hervé Renard.

This appointment is based on an impressive technical profile. The former Ivorian goalkeeper is among the few experts holding the highest certifications in European football, combining both head coach and specific goalkeeper coaching diplomas.

By returning to the Ivorian bench alongside Hervé Renard, Copa Barry brings his top-level experience and deep knowledge of the orange house. This is a significant asset for mentoring the new generation of goalkeepers and instilling the winning spirit that led the country to the continental title.
