The Czech Football Association appointed Spanish Santi Denia, 52 years old, as the new head coach of the national team with a two-year contract, with an option to extend. He becomes the first foreign coach to lead the Czech national team. Denia replaces former coach Miroslav Koubek, who stepped down in June after the team exited the group stage of the 2026 World Cup. Denia has achieved coaching successes including titles in the European Under-17 and Under-19 Championships with Spanish youth teams, as well as winning a gold medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics with the Spain U-23 team. As a player, he played for Atlético Madrid from 1995 to 2004, winning the Spanish league title in 1996, and earned two caps with the Spanish national team. Denia will begin his tenure with the Czech Republic in September during the UEFA Nations League matches against Croatia and England.
