Camacho agrees Gabon coaching post

José Antonio Camacho will be named the new coach of Gabon's national football team, Agence France-Presse report; the agency claim that the 61-year-old is in Libreville to sign his new contract with the country who are to host 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

Costa's replacement

Camacho will take over the vacancy left by Jorge Costa, who was sacked at the start of November. The former Spain and Real Madrid coach has been away from coaching since he quit the China post in 2013.

Among the players who will be under his command with Gabon are Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang; Juventus' Lemina and Nástic midfielder Lévy Madinda. Most of the Gabon squad are active in other leagues outside of Africa.
