Lisbon, Portugal (My Sportsbook) - Manchester United assistant Carlos Queiroz is set for his second stint as a Portugal national team coach, according to newspaper reports. He is expected to sign a four-year contract with Portugal, meaning he would lead the team through the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012. Queiroz's first spell at the helm of Portugal was from 1991-93 with a youth team. Queiroz, 55, coached Real Madrid in 2003-04 and has been an assistant coach at Manchester United since then. He would replace Luiz Felipe Scolari, who recently accepted the coaching job at United's English Premier League rival Chelsea.
