The Ethiopian Football Federation has confirmed it has agreed a deal for Portuguese coach Mariano Barreto to take charge of the national football team.

The former Ghana coach will be unveiled on Tuesday according to EFF president Juinedi Basha.

"We've selected Barreto to be the new coach, we've agreed on the terms and conditions," Basha told BBC Sport.

He replaces Sewnet Bishaw, who was sacked in February after a poor campaign at the African Nations Championship in South Africa.

Barreto's main task will will be to lead the Walya Antelopes to the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.

Ethiopia are one of 21 nations who have gone straight into the group stages of the Nations Cup qualifiers, which get underway in September.

The 57-year-old quit Ghana in September 2004 after just nine months in charge, citing problems in communications with the country's football association.

He went onto coach Portuguese side Maritimo and several other clubs in Europe including Russian sides Dynamo Moscow and Kuban Krasnador.

All these countries continue to make the same mistake of hiring these foreign coaches to change their footballing fortunes. It will never work. They could hire Alex ferguson and It will only have a marginal improvement for them.

Instead of them spending their hard earned money on coaches, they should be spending it on Administrators and planners. People like Maigari and Green or any of the FA chiefs around the world who have demonstrated success in planning and football development programs.

The issue is not just coaching, its everything, from youth player development , competitiveness, league development and developing the right people to manage the system

And when they do, they will concede the usual three goals and give up the usual penalty.

Barreto - Na true mercenary
While on a contract, with the Ghana team, he got an offer from Russia that doubled his salary
He made up some flimsy excuse about Ghanaian Journalist and left

Don't worry, when Ethiopia play Ghana in the nearest future, the Black Stars will whup them upside the head. Then we'll see which media he will blame then as he runs away from the job or (better yet) gets fired. This is a step backwards for Ethiopia.

They don't know how to play against big burly gra gra players. Barreto will fix that problem.
