Chris Coleman will become the new coach of Oud-Heverlee Leuven. Despite his apparently rather flattering CV, Hein Vanhaezebrouck does not seem convinced.
Chris Coleman will have to straighten out OHL this season, succeeding Oscar Garcia during the international break. The Welshman is particularly known in Belgium for having eliminated the Red Devils in the quarter-final of Euro 2016.
It is also from this period with Wales that the last good years of Coleman’s coaching career date. His time at Sunderland, beyond media coverage in the series Sunderland ’til I die, was not crowned with success, before an exile in China then passages in Greece and Cyprus.
Can he return to Den Dreef as the coach he was at Fulham then in Wales? Chris Coleman has in any case made big declarations, affirming that he would not just play for survival but would aim for the top 6.
“I read that Chris Coleman believed that there were the qualities in the core to aim for the top 6. That’s nonsense. This coach knows nothing about our championship,” asserts Hein Vanhaezebroucknot convinced by the choice of the Louvanist management, on the plateau ofExtra Time.
Chris Coleman is now officially in post and will give his first training sessions this week, after watching from the stand the good performance of his colors against RSC Anderlecht. He will be keen to prove Hein Vanhaezebrouck wrong.
