Former national team coach for China, Gao Hongbo, will take up his mantle again, on an interim basis, according to a press release by the Chinese Football Association on Wednesday.
Gao is replacing Alain Perrin after the French coach was sacked following China's third place in the second round of qualifiers for the 2018 world cup.
Gao has formerly coached the national team between 2009 and 2011.
China's next qualifying game will be on March 24th against the Maldives.
All eyes will be on him, as he seeks to correct China's misfortune in their 2018 World Cup Qualifying Campaign.
