After only three months of collaboration, Patrick Vieira is already leaving DAZN. The 1998 world champion has returned to service as a coach and has just been appointed head of Genoa.
Patrick Vieira and DAZN, it's already over. Promoted to number 1 consultant on the British platform since the start of the season, the 1998 world champion is already leaving the Ligue 1 broadcaster. But for a good cause.
As is often the case with coaches who act as consultants while waiting to find a club, Patrick Vieira leaves DAZN to return to a bench. After coaching in the United States (New York City FC), France (Nice, Strasbourg) and England (Crystal Palace), the former Arsenal captain will now take charge of Serie A, having carried the colors of AC Milan, Juventus and Inter as a player.

“Genoa CFC announces that it has entrusted the technical direction of the first team to Patrick Vieira, indicates the Ligurian club this Wednesday in a press release. The new coach will lead the first training session in the afternoon after the contract is formalized at the Villa Rostan headquarters. »
Successor to Alberto Gilardino, Patrick Vieira will have the mission of maintaining Genoa, 17th in the ranking with 10 points taken in 12 days. In Genoa, the Frenchman will reunite with some former Ligue 1 players, such as Vitinha and Ruslan Malinovsky (seriously injured), and especially a certain Mario Balotelli, recent recruit of the Rossoblu, and with whom it had been difficult to get along with Vieira at Nice.
