It is his fourth African national team as head coach, after Congo, Kenya and Equatorial Guinea, and his seventh if assistant posts with DR Congo, Congo, Togo and Cameroon are included.

Migné departed Haiti on Tuesday evening by mutual consent. Appointed in March 2024, he guided Haiti to their second World Cup, the first since 1974.

At the 2026 finals, Haiti lost all three group matches, against Scotland 0-1, Brazil 0-3 and Morocco 2-4, and finished fourth in Group C.
