Just one day after the Football Association of Thailand (FAT) announced the departure of Japanese coach Masatada Ishii, English strategist Anthony Hudson was officially appointed to the "hot seat". Previously, Mr. Hudson held the role of Technical Director of FAT.

Speaking on his inauguration day, Coach Hudson affirmed that Thailand's World Cup dream can completely become a reality in the near future.

"I believe Thailand is capable of participating in the World Cup. But to make that happen, we have to improve many factors, from increasing international competition, developing young players to improving the quality of the domestic coaching staff," Mr. Hudson shared.

The new head coach also did not hesitate to set specific and ambitious goals. In the immediate future, he wants to bring Thailand to the final round of the 2027 Asian Cup and make a strong impression on fans.

He confidently said: "Thailand is one of the countries I love. I want to make that come true by bringing Thailand to the finals of the Asian Cup and impressing all the fans with my performance."

The English strategist also emphasized that he is not afraid of the pressure of sitting in the "hot seat" of the national team. He also wants to share his passion and make the players feel proud to wear the team shirt.

To achieve the World Cup goal, Coach Hudson believes that a comprehensive development strategy is needed, including youth football development, increasing the number of quality coaches and taking the right steps. He expressed his belief that with careful preparation, Thailand can make great strides.
