Coach João Aroso, a tactician who has been on the Portuguese stage until recently, joined as a foreign coach to assist Hong Myung-bo, the national soccer team coach.
The Korea Football Association announced on the 21st that coach Aroso joined as the head coach and tactical coach.
Coach Aroso took his first step as a leader in 2003, starting with Sporting Coach, a prestigious club in Portugal’s professional football Premier League.
It is a time with coach Fernando Santos, who won Portugal at the 2016 UEFA European Championship (Euro 2016).
After briefly passing through AEK Athens (Greece) in 2005, he returned to Sporting to assist former Korean national soccer team coach Paulo Bento.
Coach Aroso and Bento led Sporting until 2009 and then served as Portugal’s national team from 2010 to 2014 for eight years.
At that time, he helped advance to the semi-finals of the Euro 2012 and experienced the international stage while stepping into the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
Since then, he has served as Portugal’s Under-15 national team coach, Braga B, Morocco’s U-20 coach, Victoria Guimarance’s head coach, and Pamalikang’s technical director.
Coach Aroso will take over as a tactical coach in South Korea, which was led by Bento in the past.
I can feel what Hong expects from coach Aroso’s role as the head coach.
Coach Aroso has the strength of being fluent in modern soccer and tactics as he has been on the stage of Portugal’s Primera Liga until recently.
Coach Hong also said, “Coach Aroso is a proven leader who has been keeping the field for a long time and reading world soccer trends,” adding, “We expect to support the operation of the national team with flexible and active tactics reflecting the trend.”
As Hong emphasized the use and collaboration of foreign coaches, Aroso is expected to play a pivotal role in the national team’s tactics. 메이저사이트
Coach Aroso will enter the country with Thiago Maia, the power analysis coach, within this week.
An official from the Korea Football Association said in a phone call with Newsis on the 21st that both coach Aroso and Maia will stay in Korea, adding, “Coach Aroso will go abroad flexibly and stay in Korea during the A-match period.”
Attention is focusing on how much coach Aroso will boost Hong Myung-bo’s tactical ability.
