Serbian President Vucic is on a visit to China and met with Jankovic, the Serbian head coach of the Chinese men's soccer team, at his hotel in Wangfujing, Beijing, on the evening of October 17th. In the photos that have come to light, both Jankovic and Vucic are wearing dapper suits and are all smiles. Apparently, both Serbians were very happy to be reunited in faraway China.
After the two held talks, Jankovic also presented Vucic with a Chinese men's soccer team No. 10 jersey with Vucic's name on it. Vucic smiled even after he got the national soccer team's No. 10 jersey with his name on it, looking very satisfied with the gift given to him by Jankovic.
After the meeting, Vucic also wrote happily on his personal social media, "Thank you for the gift! It's always a special feeling to meet those wonderful Serbs in all corners of the world. Serbian Mourinho as the head coach of the Chinese men's national soccer team! It's a really great feeling!"
Born in 1972, Yankovic officially accepted the position of head coach of the Chinese men's soccer team in February 2023. In this year, Jankovic led his team in 8 warm-up matches, winning 3, drawing 2 and losing 3. A total of 11 goals were scored and 6 were scored by the opponents. The Chinese men's soccer team will depart again on Nov. 16 for the World Cup Asian qualifiers. In the first round of the 36-team tournament, Jankovic will lead his team to Thailand for an away challenge.
