Later, Firat turned down an offer to guide the Nigerian national team at the 2010 Fifa World Cup. Nine years down the line, he would take up the role of the Moldova national team’s head coach on October 28, 2019. “I vacated the position to take charge of Harambee Stars on October 7, 2021,” he said. “My first major task as Harambee Stars head tactician was at the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers against Mali, away and home, on October 8 and October 12, 2021, respectively,” Firat recalled. Firat said the outcome against Russia attests to the great potential Harambee Stars possess on the global front.
