Former Slovak national team coach Francesco Calzona confirmed that he has ended his activity with the national team and wants to return to club football. The fifty-seven-year-old manager emphasized that he wants to move back to his native Italy, where he previously worked as an assistant in Naples under coaches Maurizio Sarri, Eusebio Di Francesco, and Luciano Spalletti. teraz.sk ↗ ta3.com ↗
Calzona also stated that he has stopped enjoying working as a national team coach, since matches take place only once every three months. Although he prefers a return to Italian clubs, the coach is not categorically closed off to further international experience and admitted that he will reconsider his decision in the future if suitable offers appear. sport.sk ↗
Calzona's departure has opened up the position of Slovak national team coach, which could be filled by Vladimír Weiss Sr. from Slovan Bratislava. This experienced manager has not ruled out the possibility of taking over the national team and has become the experts' top favorite. The final decision on the new coach will also depend on the position of the Slovak Football Association's leadership, and Peter Kmotrík, who has influence over the vote, will also cast a vote on the matter. ta3.com ↗
