Hugo Viana to be new Director of Football (Official Announcement p17)

[mancboy]

Great news and well done txiki of not falling into the trap of other clubs of relying on the old guard too much to the point where it becomes stale and you never get out from under them.

I reckon Pep extends but just for 12 months. Steps aside in 2026 after a year under Viana. Then we bring in Amorim.

 

[Sheikh rattle and roll]

He’s first signing must be to get Pep to extend- for two more years
Would be great to see that happen soon and shut up the negative media surrounding our club

The most interesting part about our new sporting director, is what sporting fans have been saying online about him going to the lower leagues to pick talent. Finding hidden gems. Might see us look at the championship for players. Apparently he has an incredible eye for talent

Maybe we'll see more academy players integrated into the 1st team

Sheikh Mansoor went to Lisbon in his Suzuki Liana…

He brought us back a manager, to win the Vanarama?

Used to sign this bloke a lot on old football managers. For this reason I’m a huge fan of this move
