DBasia.news – Former AC Milan and Sevilla coach Vincenzo Montella was previously rumored to be training the Iranian national team. But according to a report from Tuttomercatoweb, Montella did not want to take the job offer.
Previously, the Iranian national team have reportedly offered Vincenzo Montella the coach position. Incidentally, they did not have a coach after Carlos Quieroz resigned.
Carlos Quieroz resigned because of Iranian national team’s failure at the 2019 Asian Cup. In fact, Quieroz was quite loved by the supporters of the national team.
The Iranian national team is looking for a new coach figure. The figure who has been a coach in Europe is the priority of the country’s soccer federation.
Incidentally, Vincenzo Montella is currently unemployed. In addition, the former AS Roma employee has a pretty good reputation while training.
Vincenzo Montella’s name stole the attention while handling Sampdoria. However, Montella had gushed top clubs such as AS Roma, AC Milan and Sevilla.
Vincenzo Montella himself has been unemployed since being sacked by Sevilla. Previously, Montella was dismissed by AC Milan in November 2017.
The Iranian national team gave time to Vincenzo Montella to think about the offer. However, the Italian coach was reluctant to take the opportunity to Asia.
In fact, Vincenzo Montella was offered a three-year contract. Which means Montella has the opportunity to deal with the Iranian national team at the 2022 World Cup.
