Yesterday, famous Italian journalist and insider Fabrizio Romano announced the appointment of a new head coach of the Uzbekistan national football team. According to him, the team could be led by former Italian footballer and Ballon d'Or winner Fabio Cannavaro, who won the 2006 World Cup. This news caused great interest and discussion among football fans.
Fabio Cannavaro gained immense fame as a footballer, but his coaching career was not very successful. It is known that he has worked for clubs in different countries for the last 12 years, but his biggest achievement was winning the championship with Chinese club Guangzhou in 2019.
Football expert Alisher Nikimbayev called Romano's report completely reliable. He argued that if Fabrizio Romano had written about it, there was credibility in the report. "He doesn't risk his reputation," Nikimbayev said in an interview with Podrobno.uz.
After that, Nikimbayev drew attention to the fact that working for the national team is completely different from working for a club, limited time, and limited opportunities. The head coach is required to have tactical thinking and the ability to work quickly and effectively with the player.
As a player, Fabio Cannavaro is recognized as one of the strongest defenders in the world. His extensive experience and intellectual potential could be beneficial for the Uzbekistan national team. Cannavaro's path as a player could open new opportunities for the national team.
The Football Association of Uzbekistan has reportedly held negotiations with several coaches, including Joachim Löw, Fatih Terim, and Paulo Bento. However, none of them accepted the offer, so Cannavaro is currently the main candidate.
Fabio Cannavaro's appointment as head coach of the Uzbekistan national team is certainly causing great intrigue and interest. His candidacy can take Uzbek football to a new level with new opportunities and successes.
