Claudio Ranieri retired, it is not for now. See you soon 70 years old (he will have them on October 20), the Italian coach has signed with Watford for what will be his fourth Premier League experience after Chelsea (2000-2004), Leicester (2015-2017) and Fulham (2018-2019). He replaces at a moment’s notice the Spaniard Xisco Munez who had scored only seven points in seven matches played this season with the promoted, where notably the French international Moussa Sissoko and the former Rennais Ismaïla Sarr. The two weeks ahead will be short for the technician forced to expressly take his marks before the insane schedule that awaits the Hornets: Liverpool, Everton, Southampton, Arsenal, Manchester United, Leicester, Chelsea and Manchester City over the next 8 days. Just that !
Incredible experience and longevity
With Claudio Ranieri, Watford has secured the services of one of the most experienced coaches still in business. After starting his career in Italy in 1986, the native of Rome trained in the biggest championships (Serie A, Premier League, Liga) but also in Ligue 1 (Monaco 2012-2014) and Nantes (2017-2018). This new adventure will be the 21st of his personal career on a bench. His main achievement will remain the domestic coronation with Leicester in 2016.
