The Croatian coach says goodbye to the cast where Alexis Sánchez plays. “I made this decision for private and professional reasons. I’m not leaving because I have an agreement with another club,” he said.
Igor Tudor leaves Olympique de Marseille. This Thursday, the Croatian coach confirmed at a press conference that he was leaving the club where Alexis Sánchez plays. His fate next season is uncertain but, according to European media, Juventus are following in DT’s footsteps. “I am leaving the club and leaving it in better condition than I found it in,” he says.
In this sense, the strategist excludes a possible pre-contract with the Vecchia Signora. “I made this decision for private and professional reasons. I’m not leaving because I have an agreement with another club,” he said. However, the coach is the main candidate to replace Massimiliano Allegri on the Italian side’s bench. Even this move could tempt Tudor to bring the Wonder Boy back to Serie A. In his time as a footballer, the Split-born man played for the Turin institution for nine years.
“I thank the leaders. It was an honor for me to coach for a season at the Olympique. I found followers like you rarely find, ”he adds in his farewell to Marseille. The announcement was also followed by Pablo Longoria, the port team’s sporting director, who said the farewells were on good terms. . “We accept and respect Igor’s wish not to continue. The club thanks him for his good work, with a lot of respect, and a lot of values: requirement, rigorous work. We are very happy with his season,” said the Spaniard.
The coach announces his exit with a performance of 63%, which could worsen his defeat of Ajaccio during the last meeting of Ligue 1. It should be noted that the team of the Marseillaise does not play anything in this match, since it has the third place assured and that there is no possibility that it passes to the second. In one season, Igor Tudor led 37 games, totaling 22 wins, 7 draws and 8 losses.
The future of Sanchez
Alexis Sánchez still doesn’t know where he will play next season. El Niño Maravilla is the scorer for Olympique de Marseille and in France the priority is to extend the link he has with the port institution. However, his performance puts him back on the horizon of the big European clubs. PSG have already shown interest and Juventus now appear as an option.
The one trained at Cobreloa expressed being happy at the club. However, he also expressed his disagreement for not winning the Premier League title. “When we were behind Paris, people were motivated and we missed the opportunity. It must serve as experience (…) We were close, we had a chance of being champions. Since I arrived I said I wanted to win trophies and maybe nobody believed me,” he said a few days ago.
In addition to appearing as an option in teams from the old continent, the former Inter Milan also appears on the horizon of the Saudi Professional League. According to what the North American television channel CBS Sports indicated, Al Khaleej would be in the footsteps of the historic striker of the Reds.
