Nenad Bjelica signed for Union Berlin
Union Berlin, one of the top soccer teams in the German Bundesliga, appointed Nenad Bjelica as its new coach.
The experienced 52-year-old Croatian coach, who coached Trabzonspor earlier this season, left his position on October 11 due to negative results.
On November 15, Union Berlin parted ways with Urs Fischer, who had managed the team since 2018. The team made a significant change by appointing Bjelica to the position of coach.
Regarding Bjelica’s appointment, Union Berlin Club president Dirk Zingler said on the website: “We have appointed an experienced coach who has successfully worked in several countries. He has a clear idea of how he wants to lead our team and what kind of football our team should play. We trust him. “I wish you a good start,” he said.
BJELICA: I’M WAITING FOR IT
After the official signing ceremony, Nenad Bjelica said: “Union is a very well-run club in one of the best leagues in Europe. My job is to get the team out of a difficult situation and regain its strengths. I’m looking forward to this fight. I want to see well-organized, active and dominant football and players willing to take responsibility. “From now on we will work together on this issue,” he said.
Union Berlin, which qualified for the Champions League by finishing fourth in the Bundesliga last season, is in 17th place this season with only 2 wins, 1 draw and 9 losses after 12 matches. (DHA)
