As the initiator of China's "Golden Dollar Football", Guangzhou Evergrande (now renamed Guangzhou Team) Club suffered a huge change last season due to the financial situation of the parent company.
Since the club has no money to pay the huge annual salary of the players, the big-name foreign aides and naturalized players in the Guangzhou team have successively terminated their contracts and left the team, and the team coach Cannavaro also announced that he left the Guangzhou team that had been coaching for 4 years under such circumstances.
Cannavaro, who left Guangzhou, did not immediately find a new home for himself, perhaps because his qualifications were not enough, or because of the impact of the epidemic, the frequency of coach changes in league clubs in various countries has decreased a lot in the past two years, and Cannavaro has been idle at home since the official termination of his contract with Guangzhou in September last year.
Cannavaro, who has been away from the Chinese Super League for more than half a year, has also begun to be gradually forgotten by Chinese fans, but recent reports from a certain West Asian sports media have made the name of "Cannavaro" reappear into everyone's field of vision.
Recently, according to the UAE sports media "Dubai Sports", Cannavaro has recently reached an agreement with the Dubai Youth Nationals of the UAE League on joining the matter, and soon he will take office to replace the team's former coach Mahdi Ali as the team's new manager.
As a giant team in the Adria League, Dubai Youth Nationals' league results this season have not been particularly satisfactory, and as of the 19th round of the league they are only 5th in the table.
Obviously, such results are completely out of line with the requirements of the club's top brass. Therefore, Dubai Youth National Club also decided to change the coach, after a hierarchical screening, the club finally decided that Cannavaro will be the new head coach of the team, and hopes that the Italian manager can lead the team out of the trough as soon as possible.
The reason why Dubai Youth National Club chose Cannavaro as the new manager of the team is mainly because he once coached the team in the Argentine Super League, and Cannavaro, who left Juventus in 2010, joined the Aaa Super League giants Dubai Al-Ahli as a free body.
After one year with the team, Cannavaro announced his retirement due to a serious knee injury, after which he entered the coaching staff of Dubai Al Ahli and officially started his coaching career.
In addition, Cannavaro briefly coached Riyadh Victory in the Saudi League, but he did not succeed there, and he was swept away by the club less than half a year after joining the team.
After leaving Saudi Arabia, Cannavaro returned to the Chinese Super League and achieved success with Tianjin Quanjian. In 2016, he led Quan Jian to win the Chinese League One championship and successfully entered the Chinese Super League.
At the end of 2017, Cannavaro joined Evergrande for the second time and led the team to win the Chinese Super League championship in the 2019 season. It can be said that Cannavaro is one of the best managers in the same age group in the Chinese Super League, and in just 3 years, he led the team to win the Chinese First Division and the Chinese Super League respectively.
Despite his successful coaching experience in China, Cannavaro's ability in the european mainstream leagues is not convincing enough. Therefore, after leaving Evergrande, Cannavaro has not been able to find a managerial position for himself in the European League.
Joining the Dubai Youth Nationals this time is also Cannavaro's decision to retreat. I hope to be able to win the favor of major European league clubs by leading this AD League giants to achieve outstanding results. We also wish Cannavaro success in the UAE and lead the team to the league's championship trophy once again.
