Just on June 30 this year, more than ten days ago, Ed Vocat's coaching term at Haarlem in the Dutch second division expired, and the two parties had automatically terminated the contract.
Therefore, Advocaat is now a free agent.
Lenny had dealt with Ed Vocat before joining U-League. Players he had previously signed had played under Ed Vo Carter.
Immediately afterwards, Lenny explained to everyone the reasons why he recommended Advocaat:
First of all, Edvorkat played for a Bundesliga team for a long time when he was a player. After turning into a coach, he coached a team in the Dutch Second League for many years. Therefore, he will be more able to accept the technical and tactical level of the Banat team, and he will also be able to
More suitable for the atmosphere of the Britten Third Division.
Secondly, although he was born in the Netherlands, his coaching ideas are more practical and he is more adaptable to the simple, fast and powerful football style.
Third, he has coached in the lower leagues for many years, so his requirements for personal treatment, transfer funds and other aspects will be more realistic.
Finally, he is now a free agent. If he can be persuaded to coach the Banat team, he can take up the position at any time without any other troubles.
After listening to Lenny's recommendation, Sun Dahai fell into deep thought. Van Gaal will become a world-class coach in the future, so there is no need to think too much about his coaching ability.
But he is also quite famous for his bad temper and stubbornness. But having said that, it seems that the current wave of Dutch coaches are basically hot-tempered. It only improved after the Three Musketeers retired and became coaches.
Regarding Van Gaal, Sun Dahai ranked him second in his mind. The key was that he was afraid that he would not look down on the Banat team.
A confident coach like Van Gaal might not even look down on the top teams in Britten, let alone a third-tier league team like Banat!
Van Gaal advocates Dutch-style total attack and total defense football, and his coaching ideas are no problem at Ajax. This football philosophy is inherited in all Ajax teams, and he can find suitable players from the echelon at any time.
But now the concept of football in Britten is still relatively backward. In training and competition, there are often scenes of "balls flying in the sky and people chasing on the ground". Turning the football field into a track and field or even a rugby field is what Britten players often do.
of.
Therefore, many coaches from powerful football countries look down on the current Britten football, and few Britten players can stand in the top leagues of other countries.
As for the second candidate proposed by Lenny, Sun Dahai has never heard of this name. Sun Dahai was not a real football fan in his previous life, so he has not paid attention to these second- and third-rate football figures.
(Edward Carter cried. He personally trained the alien Fei Luo, but he was relegated to the second- and third-rate coaches by Sun Dahai.)
However, since he can get the respect of the distinguished Dutch coach Michel, he must be very good at coaching.
More importantly, he is a plug-and-play player, so Sun Dahai decided to focus on Ed Wo Carter and first try to persuade him to coach the team.
Sun Dahai specifically asked Wei San for his opinion, and Wei San also felt that the club currently has nothing, and it is the last word to first strive for the team to enter the second division and at the same time improve the club's infrastructure.
Therefore, Sun Dahai asked Lenny to contact Ed Vokart on the phone first and prepare to go to the Netherlands to interview him.
Lenny's call was timely. After Edvorkat terminated his contract, he has received invitations from multiple clubs. He is currently considering whether to become the head coach of the Dutch second division team Dordrecht.
Dordrecht is a semi-professional team, and its financial situation is not as good as that of the previous Banat team. After all, Banat is also a professional team.
Although the team's owner has great ambitions and is actively looking for money, it cannot be solved in a short time.
The Netherlands is too small, and the second division league cannot gather enough teams to participate. Therefore, there are not only professional teams, but also semi-professional teams and the second-tier teams of several strong Dutch teams. The second team of Ajax where Yang Xufei plays is the Dutch second division.
The best in the league.
When Lenny told the situation about the Banat Football Club on the phone, Advocaat was a little tempted.
Britten is the originator of modern football. Although the tough guys in the Britten football world are now in power and their techniques and tactics are relatively outdated, they are senior, have a large football population base, and have many teams and fans, so they occupy an important position in European football.
Location.
In comparison, the average level of the Dutch Second Division is similar to that of the Breiten Third Division, but in terms of the level of attention from fans and media, the Dutch Second League certainly cannot compare with it.
Although Ed Vokart has experience as an assistant coach for the national team, there are a large number of outstanding coaches emerging in Dutch football now. It is not a problem for him to always hang out in the Dutch second league.
Since Lenny has extended an invitation to him on behalf of the Banat team, let's go and talk about it first. At worst, one or two seasons of time will be wasted, go out and try out different football styles, and gain more experience and knowledge.
good.
Lenny knows that time waits for no one, and he is about to prepare for pre-season training. The sooner the coach candidate is determined, the better. Especially for a team like Banat, Sun Dahai is still waving a check to prepare for a major change. Players coming in and out, yes
It needs to be decided by the head coach based on his tactical thinking.
After Lenny hung up the phone, he called Van Gaal's office again.
However, people in the Ajax youth training camp office said that Van Gaal was discussing tactics with several coaches in the conference room at this time. He could only answer the phone after their meeting was over.
Lenny didn't care. He called the hotel's service desk and asked about the time of the latest flight to Amsterdam, preparing to rush over to interview the two coaches.
After learning that the nearest flight was the day after tomorrow, Lenny hung up the phone and asked Sun Dahai for his opinion.
"There will be a direct flight to Amsterdam only tomorrow. Why don't I rent a car and drive there tomorrow? It's less than 400 kilometers away and can be reached in half a day."
Sun Dahai waved his hand, "That would be too troublesome. Fan Zheng, please contact the air traffic control agency in London and apply for the future route to Amsterdam.
Lenny, you can just take the Future. Anyway, I will be staying in London these days and there is no need for a plane.
If any coach has the intention to come to coach the Banat team, we will bring them to London for interviews. Using the Future number will not only show our financial strength, but also reflect our sincerity."
He turned to Baia and said: "Mr. Baia, since we have negotiated various matters regarding the acquisition, why not sign the contract as soon as possible. The new season is about to begin, and we must hurry up in preparations. Time does not wait.
human.
As for the issues of preparing to build a new stadium and coordinating with the government, we can proceed at the same time, which has no direct impact on the transfer of the club and the playground."
