It’s not easy to be a coach. As soon as they stumble one, two, or three times in a row, talk about the upcoming coaching castling begins to spread. And few people remember past merits. As they say, the old glory loves the new! And you can’t argue with that.
Good coaches cannot be without a club for a long time. Do you think some of the coaches discussed in the article will still find a team this year? Do you want to make a bet on it? We recommend you 22Bet online betting as it offers you many interesting bets and bonuses.
In the past summer off-season from the cohort, which is, according to football terminology, on the bench, “returned to the game,” among other things, Massimiliano Allegri and Jose Mourinho (however, he did not rest for long). But many trainers are still free:
- Gennaro Gattuso
- Kike Setien
- Ernesto Valverde
- Lucien Favre
- Zinedine Zidane
Gennaro Gattuso
Following the previous season’s results, Gattuso failed to bring Napoli to the Champions League – the team finished in Serie A in the fifth position. In Naples, they could not forgive him for this, and Gennaro left. It would seem he left, not for long: at the end of May, he headed Fiorentina, but a month later, he left the club without a single training session with the team. The Italian media are sure that the severance of relations with the “violets” was the different views of the management and Gennaro on the transfer policy.
Kike Setien
In the 2019/2020 season, the Spanish specialist did not become a savior for the Catalan club but left a sad memory of himself with a 2-8 defeat to Bayern in the Champions League quarterfinals. With that, he left, giving up his place to Ronald Koeman. However, until now, no one remembers Setien as a potential job seeker. Something suggests that things may change soon.
Ernesto Valverde
Like Setien, Valverde has lived in recent months solely on the memories of his work with Barcelona. In it, we recall, he was replaced by just the same Kike. Ernesto, like his colleague, is still on vacation. Meanwhile, Valverde is in the prime of his life, which means that he has not yet said his last coach’s word.
Lucien Favre
The Swiss led the Bumblebees to the Champions League playoffs at the beginning of the previous winter but failed in the Bundesliga. That was the end of his mission to Signal Iduna Park. According to periodically appearing rumors and insiders, he is ready to start it all over again elsewhere. Let’s wait!
Zinedine Zidane
The Frenchman has achieved with the “galacticos” everything that can be achieved in European and world club football. He said goodbye to Santiago Bernabeu with his head held high. Only the most powerful of the modern football world will want to see a specialist of such a class as Zinedine Zidane. But will the coach himself want this?
