Chinese football has ushered in a key change, and the selection of a new coach is in full swing. Among the many high-profile candidates, former Shandong Taishan coach and Croatian coach Ivankovic have attracted much attention and are expected to become the new leader of the national football team. This coach selection turmoil is not only related to the future of Chinese football, but also makes fans look forward to the direction of the national football team.
Ivankovic's name is not unfamiliar to Chinese football circles. He has coached national teams such as Iran and Oman, and also led Shandong Taishan in the Chinese Super League. Although he retired from the position due to physical reasons and failed to achieve the desired results in the Asian Cup in Oman, his love and understanding of Chinese football is unquestionable. This makes him one of the ideal candidates in the eyes of the Chinese Football Association.
At the same time, the Chinese Football Association has also shown its ambition and determination for the future of the national football team. They have set an annual salary budget of up to $2 million to attract foreign coaches of higher calibre and bring real improvement to the national football team. This shows that the new leadership of the Football Association attaches great importance to and supports the development of Chinese football, and also injects confidence and impetus into the future of the national football team.
However, whether Ivankovic can become the savior of the national football team still needs to be seen in actual combat. Although he has a wealth of coaching experience and an in-depth understanding of Chinese football, the current problems faced by the national football team should not be underestimated. In addition to technical and tactical adjustments, it is also necessary to solve problems in terms of player state and mentality. This requires Ivankovic to have in-depth communication and understanding with the national football players and establish a good relationship of trust in order to truly promote the development of the national football team.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Ivankovic, who has attracted attention from the outside world, the Chinese Football Association is also considering the training and selection of local coaches. This not only helps to improve the overall quality of China's football coaching team, but also lays a solid foundation for the long-term development of the national football team. After all, the future of the national football team cannot only rely on foreign coaches, and the training of local coaches is also crucial.
In the selection process of the new coach of the national football team, in addition to technical and tactical ability, adaptability to the Chinese football environment is also a crucial consideration. The particularity and complexity of Chinese football dictate that it takes a certain amount of time for any coach to adapt and understand. Therefore, if Ivankovic can become the new coach of the national football team, he needs to have enough patience and wisdom to adapt to the development environment of Chinese football and find the most suitable development path for the national football team.
Overall, the selection of a new coach for Chinese football is an extremely challenging task, but it is also a promising start. Whether it is Ivankovic or other candidates, they will shoulder the mission of reviving the national football team. I believe that with the joint efforts of Chinese football talents, the future of the national football team will be even better!
