COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Former Chelsea forward Eidur Gudjohnsen will resign as assistant coach of the Iceland national team next week after less than a year in the role, the country's football association (KSI) said.
The 43-year-old, who is Iceland's all-time joint-top scorer with 26 goals in 88 international games, departs with his side having failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
