Around two years after his end with second division soccer team Hertha BSC, Fredi Bobic may be facing a new commitment. The manager should be one of the top candidates at this year’s Champions League club.
Does Fredi Bobic hire at the Croatian top club Dinamo Zagreb? According to “Sportske Novosti”, the 53-year-old is a serious candidate at the Champions League participant who wants to fill the post of sports director again.
The Croatians had separated from Marko Maric in early February, since then you have been looking for a new strong man. There would be skeptical voices around the club, whether one should sign a foreign sports director. The native Slovenian Bobic still knows the Croatian league from his time at HNK Rijeka, where he once ended his career as a player.
The 27-time master Dinamo Zagreb, who has not won the title only once (!) Since 2006, plays significantly below expectations in the current season. After 27 games, the reigning double winner only ranks in third place, five points separate Zagreb from leaders Hajduk Split. Pregnant Rijeka has four points more than Dinamo. In addition, the capital club flew out in the quarter -finals of the trophy.
Zagreb saws off ex-union trainers
Dinamo Zagreb narrowly missed the progress in the Champions League this season. After the 2: 9 clap at FC Bayern, the Croatians initially caught up, but at the end of November there was another dampening with the 0: 3 against BVB. Despite a 2-1 win against AC Milan and only due to the poorer goal difference, Zagreb ultimately took 25th place. The 24th place would have been necessary for a place in the playoffs.
In the course of the season so far disappointing so far, Dinamo Zebenb had carried out several coaches. Sergei Jakirovic was released in mid -September after the debacle against FC Bayern. The former Union Berlin trainer Nenad Bjelica, who had to take his hat off shortly before the turn of the year, followed the Sandro Perkovic interim solution. The former world-class defender Fabio Cannavaro has been the former world-class defender since the beginning of the year.
After his successful player career, Fredi Bobic worked as a sports director for VfB Stuttgart, Eintracht Frankfurt and Hertha BSC. The commitment ended in the Berliners in January 2023.
