Searching for a new football manager representation Polish have been going on since the end of December, when it was announced that PZPN would not extend the contract with Czesław Michniewicz. From that moment, the media started listing the names of coaches who could take over the team.
“When it comes to foreign trainers, President Kulesza has already had talks with – it seems – three main candidates. It did not end with individual meetings, Kulesza spoke with them several times. Instead of clear voices, we are whispering that in fighting Vladimir Petkovic’s ratings are high for the position of coach. The 59-year-old Bosniak of Croatian origin was expected to make a good impression at the first meeting. He gained knowledge, specifics and enthusiasm. He was open to expectations and the work model proposed by the president” – Kacper Sosnowski informs Sport.pl.
Kulesza already knows who will be the new coach
There are many indications that the name of the new selector will be announced soon. The selector selection process is coming to an end. Cezary Kulesza w interview with RMF announced that the coach had already been selected. – You can say that I already know who will be, but the decision-making remains on the other side. It is known that this may drag on for several days and I’m just waiting for an answer from the other side. I am waiting for approval, said the president. He added that it was a foreign coach.
– The most important criterion for sure was whether he had run one before representationbecause it’s quite important. Running a national team and a club team are really different methods, but today I can say that this candidate is already selected and we are waiting for confirmation from the other side – said the president of PZPN.
