ivankovic's "successor" has emerged

according to beijing youth daily, the chinese football association has been cautious about whether to change the coach. on the one hand, even though the national football team suffered two consecutive defeats, they still have eight rounds to play. in other words, ivan has not yet "failed to complete the task of leading the team as agreed in the contract." on the other hand, the various issues involved in changing the coach are complicated. in addition to dealing with contract issues with the current coaching team, the football association also has doubts about whether it can find a suitable replacement in the short term.

beijing youth daily said that from now onformit seems that the chinese football association has reached the point where it has to change the head coach. in addition to the pressure from public opinion and fans, the low morale of the national football team is also a fact that cannot be ignored. data shows that the national football team has played 6 games under ivan, with a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses. since the last round of the round of 36 away to south korea, the 3 consecutive defeats have caused certain doubts within the team about ivan's use of troops. if the head coach is not widely trusted, not only will the locker room be out of control, but the effectiveness of the team's technical and tactical execution during the game will also be greatly reduced, and this is what the chinese football association is most worried about.

considering various factors, the chinese football association is more likely to choose one of the current national men's football team coaches to take over the national football team. the serbian coach of the 2005 u19 national football team, djurdjevic, and the spanish coach of the 2003 u21 national football team, antonio, are both relatively suitable candidates.

beijing youth daily reported that ivankovic returned to beijing on the afternoon of the 11th and will then communicate with the chinese football association on work matters. whether the football association decides to change the coach or what kind of new coach to choose, the answer will soon become clear.
