The league is heading for a bitter end for Sparta. Six points to Pilsen and four to Slavia is too big a loss three rounds before the end. Even the poor councilor will realize that without the defeats in Olomouc and the home draw with Hradec Králové, Letenské would currently be second to the biggest rivals. And these are just recent losses …

Saturday’s paddle with the Votrocs took the coach well, he was obviously depressed. Until he resigned.
–
“I am disappointed after the match. I’m a person who just endures some things like this, “Pavel Vrba explained his mood.
–
It seems that Sparta may be grinding another renowned coach. According to sources close to the team, the former coach of the Czech national team is very disappointed, especially from the whole spring.
–
And if he doesn’t at least win the cup, the management will probably lose patience.

“I am glad they offered me an extension. I even wanted to wait a while until we saw how the competition started. Sparta has decided to close the meeting six months in advance, “said the 58-year-old native of Přerov.
–
Some experts point out that coaches often extend contracts by more than just one year.
–
“The management offered me that length, I didn’t solve it. You still have a period of notice, then it doesn’t matter how long the contract is … I got such an offer and we agreed, “Vrba was clear.

He won a total of six league titles with Žilina, Pilsen and Razgrad in Bulgaria. However, he also escapes him at Letná.

“Sparta is looking for a coach in Germany,” reports a source close to the club’s management.

It would not be a complete novelty. “The owner of the Křetínský club was already thinking about a foreign coach for me. I don’t think the idea will just let him go, “smiled one of Sparta’s recent coaches years ago.

No wonder. Seven years ago, the management failed to implement a truly brilliant idea. Bring Erik the Hague, then coach of the Bayern Munich junior.

He must be sorry, Ten Hag had long since missed him. Sparta later reached out, with the Italian Stramaccioni and his numerous staff burned. The desire for a stranger on the bench has subsided for a while, but according to the latest reports, it is reviving.

And because the competition never sleeps, the situation at Letná is closely monitored especially by Baník from Ostrava. He recently dismissed Ondřej Smetana and his assistant Tomáš Galásek commutes the season.
–
“I do not think he will continue. Baník has another dream coach, “TV expert Martin Vozábal smiled at the O2 TV Sport studio over the weekend.
–
He almost certainly had Vrba, the former defender and coach of Baník, in mind.
–
In the rest of the season, Vrba plays a lot anyway. In the final of the cup in Slovácko in particular.

Will coach Pavel Vrba lead Sparta next season as well?
