Best Coaches Who are Yet to Find a New Team

Preparations for the new season are slowly starting. Clubs are actively working on the transfer market to complete the squads with high quality. But not only players are signed. Manchester United, Ajax, Marseille, Lille and other clubs have appointed new coaches. We will talk about well-known specialists who are still without teams.

Zinedine Zidane

Real Madrid is still the only club in the specialist's coaching career. At the head of Real Madrid Zidane has set such a high personal bar that he has been without a team for more than a year. Indeed, a manager who won the Champions League 3 times in a row will not accept every offer. At various times, the former player was associated with Juventus, Manchester United and PSG. Zidane does not hide his desire to lead the French national team, but it is not certain that he will vacate Didier Deschamps’ seat after the World Cup.

It should be noted that in a lot of casino and betting platforms online, Zidane was a favourite to take a place of PSG head coach. However, it did not go through accordingly, as Christophe Galtier became the manager of PSG.

Rafael Benitez

Unlike Zidane, Benitez does not go over the clubs. The specialist even managed to work in China. The seasoned Spaniard's last club was Everton, which he left in January. It's still hard to tell if Frank Lampard is the right manager for the Toffees. At least the specialist kept the team in the Premier League, and this is already important. As for Benitez, he has not yet been linked to any clubs. But the specialist, under whose leadership Liverpool played 350 matches and won the Champions League, will not remain without work for a long time.

Joachim Low

Low has not worked at the club level since 2004 when he left Austria. For 15 years, the specialist led the German national team, with which he won the World Cup. The German has been out of work for almost a year now. It is strange that during this time he was rarely associated with top clubs. The most frequently mentioned was Fenerbahce. But this is hardly the right place to work for such a qualified coach. Low himself has previously stated that he does not plan to end his career yet. 

Mauricio Pochettino

The future of Pochettino was discussed throughout the past season. The specialist was nevertheless fired from PSG. The Parisians appointed Christophe Galtier in his place. The period in the French capital was not easy for him, but compensation for the early termination of the contract should be decent. Even during Pochettino's time at PSG, it was reported that he wanted to return to the Premier League. There are no managerial resignations in the Premier League yet, but things could change quickly in England, especially for managers.

Jorge Sampaoli

Sampaoli did a good job at Marseille. Under his leadership, Marseille reached the semi-finals of the Conference League and finished in 2nd place in the Ligue 1. Despite good results, the specialist left the club, and Igor Tudor took his place. According to insider information, Sampaoli left Marseille due to disagreements with management over transfer issues.

André Villas-Boas

Villas-Boas has been without a club since February 2021. It is noteworthy that it was Sampaoli who replaced Villas-Boas, who also left Marseille after his predecessor. At 44, the Portuguese has already managed to work in many clubs, but after Marseille, he has not yet settled anywhere. This is largely due to the fact that the specialist carefully approaches the consideration and selection of proposals.
