The new coach of the national football team was exposed! The 76-year-old world champion coach, Huang Jianxiang strongly recommended, and Song Kai had a showdown
On January 31, Beijing time, the Qatar Asian Cup continued, in the just concluded knockout round, Uzbekistan defeated Thailand, the South Korean men's football team scored the equalizer in the last minute of injury time, and the two sides in the penalty shootout, the South Korean men's football team led by German coach Klinsmann had the last laugh and eliminated the Saudi Arabian men's football team. Huang Jianxiang thought after the game that this game was a match at the highest level in Asia, and the two sides played very excitingly, and I can only envy and hate.
The implication is that the national football team should study hard, we have no chance of winning in the face of these first-class Asian teams, the reason is that our overall strength has declined significantly, and Jankovic is a "rookie" coach, the team's tactical system is worrying, Huang Jianxiang has always supported the change of coach of the national football team, otherwise we will play in the World Preliminary Tournament in March, even if the opponent is the Singapore men's football team, we may lose. At that time, in case of losing, the Thai team will have a chance, and if the national football team can't even enter the top 18 of the Asian region of the World Preliminaries, then Chinese football will fall into an unprecedented trough, which is not conducive to the long-term development of Chinese football.
Therefore, it is reported that the Football Association is already preparing for the change of coach, and will soon convene experts from the Coaching Committee to Beijing to discuss the decision to change the coach. According to the news revealed by the media, the national football team has preliminarily screened out the main candidates, and then will finally finalize the new coach according to personal coaching intentions, signing annual salary, whether it can cooperate with the Football Association, and coaching philosophy.
In other words, Jankovic will be 100% out of class, after all, his ability to serve as the coach of the national football team was also finalized by Chen Xuyuan, the former head of the Football Association, and Song Kai will definitely not leave the "rookie" coach who created the worst results of the national football team in the Asian Cup. At most, let it stay in the youth echelon of the national football team, let it continue to precipitate, and tap young people.
At present, the media has revealed that the Football Association's current preliminary list of candidates for the new coach includes Cui Kangxi, who plays for the Chinese Super League, Queiroz, who was fired by the Qatar Football Association last year, Ivankovic, who has just stepped down as the coach of the Oman team, and Scolari, the World Cup champion coach who led Guangzhou Evergrande to create a dynasty.
Moreover, the Football Association has a clear limit on the salary space for the selection of coaches this time, and the maximum annual salary will not exceed $2 million. In this way, Choi Kang-hee and Queiroz will basically be excluded. The reason is very simple, Cui Kangxi's annual salary in Shandong Taishan is more than 3 million US dollars, how can he lower his price to coach the challenging national football team? Once the results of the team in the World Preliminary Tournament in March are not up to standard, doesn't Cui Kangxi want to mix in the Chinese Super League in the future? Moreover, Queiroz offered the Football Association as much as 8 million euros last year, which is far beyond the scope of the Football Association.
In addition, Ivankovic, who is cost-effective, has now clearly expressed to the outside world that he very much wants to coach the national football team, and he also said: If I can be given the opportunity to coach the national football team, I am confident that I will lead the team to the World Cup. However, Ivankovic's Oman was eliminated in the group stage, which also shows that his coaching level is average, although he knows Chinese football better, but it is far inferior to the old coach Scolari.
Therefore, the Brazilian and Italian Scolari, who currently has dual citizenship, is one of the most suitable targets for the new national football coach candidates. Moreover, it is said that his current salary is only 1 million euros after tax, which is also within the affordability of the Football Association. Commentator Huang Jianxiang is also strongly recommended by the national football team to find capable foreign coaches, Scolari is familiar with Chinese football, he is an admirer of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", Huang Jianxiang once praised this famous coach as a world-class coach, with a strategy with soldiers, an iron fist and tough, reading the game has a unique point, and has his own system and philosophy.
And the head of Song Kai is also more inclined to look for capable foreign coaches, after all, there will be some problems with local coaches. Moreover, Song Kai also clearly set the goal that the national football team will strive to enter the 2026 World Cup. At present, it is certain that the time for the new coach of the national football team to be finalized will wait until after the Spring Festival, if it does not go well and the invitation to Scolari and others is blocked, then the Football Association will also consider letting the local coach be ordered to transition to "firefighting", and Gao Hongbo and others are also one of the suitable candidates.
