MEF - Croat
globe-trotter Miroslav Blazevic is being tempted by Saudi league
pace-setters Al-Ittihad, if to believe Tuesday’s edition of popular
daily Al-Riyadh.
“He has already sent a comprehensive overview of his upcoming plans with
the club, asking to be joined by 2 assistants having an in-depth
experience at the age-limit squads level,” stated today’s editorial of
the paper.
“Should everything went fine, Al-Ittihad would be signing him for the
upcoming 2 seasons, Blazevic’ impressive record in the Gulf region being
the main reason behind the club’s interest,” concluded Al-Riyadh.
Al-Ittihad have sacked Brazilian manager Oscar last month and appointed
his assistant Pedro Sabinho on a care-taker basis, now that they have
secured a berth in the last-four playoff stage for the championship league
title.
Blazevic is no strange to the regional game in this part of the globe,
having previously led Iran in the last World Cup qualifiers, and currently
at the helm of Dinamo Zagreb, leaders of the Croatian league.
The Croat had previously topped Al-Ittihad’s wish-list in early January
before appointing Oscar at the expense of German manager Sylvester Takac.
