Most famously he coached the Cameroon national football team when they surprisingly made the quarterfinals in the 1990 FIFA World Cup. From 1992 to 1994 he coached clubs in Turkey. In 1994 he became head-coach of South Korea's Bucheon FC, and in 1996 led them to a victory in Adidas Cup. In 2001, he took over the job of J. League club Sanfrecce Hiroshima manager from Eddie Thomson. He has also coached Shanghai Shenhua, (whom he led to a second place finish), from 2003 to 2005, and the Uzbekistan national football team in 2006. He currently works as a football commentator for a Russian television channel, “NTV-Plus”.
