NATIONAL TEAM - Burkina Faso - Coach - Duarte returns to coach Burkina Faso
Portuguese coach Paulo Duarte has returned for a second spell in charge of the Burkina Faso national team.
He replaces Gernot Rohr, who returned home last week to work with the German football federation.
Duarte, 46, was in charge of the Stallions between 2008 and 2012, during which time he led them to two Africa Cup of Nations finals.
Burkina Faso failed to get out of the group stages in both 2010 and 2012.
During his first spell with Burkina Faso, Duarte spent several months coaching both the Stallions and French club Le Mans, before being sacked by them in 2009.
He then went on to coach Gabon from April 2012 until September of the following year.
His most recent job was with the Tunisian club CS Sfaxien from April to August this year.
