Staggeringly, the coach of the country's soccer's world qualifier rival was revealed to be back in charge. Faced with this sudden change, fans have said, "This is never possible! Absolutely impossible! He is clearly the scum of the coaching world!"
The Chinese Football Association (CFA) has not officially announced that national soccer team coach Jankovic will be fired, however, Jankovic's departure seems to have become a well-known fact. It is reported that when the FA signed the contract with Jankovic, a trigger clause was set: if the Asian Cup could not help the national soccer team to advance, he had to resign voluntarily. In the Asian Cup, the national soccer team failed to advance in the group stage with two draws and one loss. Subsequently, rumors spread that Jankovic would be fired and the national team would have a new coach!
Regarding the next coach of the national soccer team, some people speculate that it is Gao Hongbo, Zheng Zhi, Xie Hui and other local coaches, but considering Li Tie's situation, I am afraid that the Football Association should not choose local coaches easily. There are also speculations that Xu Zhengyuan of Chengdu Rongcheng and Cui Kangxi of Shandong Taishan. Is the FA "poaching" coaches from clubs again? I don't think that would be a wise move. The most talked about coach is Ivanovic, who is said to be in China at the moment.
However, while Ivankovic was in China, the English version of Korean media outlet JoongAng Ilbo reported that Jurgen Klinsmann, who had just stepped down from them, could be coaching the Chinese team. The Korean media said that the CFA could also consider Klinsmann's salary package in their list of candidates for the next coach.
Klinsmann earned a whopping 2.9 billion won per year, or about 15.45 million won, while coaching in South Korea. Previously, it was reported that the FA wanted to hire the famous coach, but given the financial constraints, it might not be possible. But will the CFA really invite Klinsmann? Does the FA really want to bring in a coach who was fired by the same group of opponents?
Although Klinsmann was once Germany's "Golden Bomber", he has failed repeatedly as a coach, and his poor performance in the striker position has carried over into his coaching career. Klinsmann in South Korea coaching time is not long, the effect is not significant. In the Asian Cup, South Korea, who were aiming to win the title, suffered a shocking and unexpected defeat to Jordan. In fact, fans watching the game thought Jordan were the real winners, as they kept South Korea at bay and had more scoring chances.
Under Klinsmann's coaching, the South Korean team's tactics were unclear and the conflict between the two big names in the dressing room was exposed. Eventually, Klinsmann was fired by the KFA after the Asian Cup. Perhaps because of this, the Korean media reported Klinsmann as one of the candidates for the national soccer team.
But upon hearing the news, Chinese fans have said, "This is never possible! Absolutely impossible!" They believe that if Klinsmann arrives, he will only become the next Camacho. Both Korean and Chinese fans dislike Klinsmann, believing him to be the scum of the coaching world, whose level may not be much higher than that of Jankovic. The fact is that national soccer team coaches are almost uniform, and the only way to hopefully take the national soccer team to the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico in two years is to bring in naturalized players!
