Michel Preud’homme leaves FC Twente for Al-Shabab Riyadh – Dutch Eredivisie news
Michel Preud’homme’s departure from FC Twente Enschede’s has been officially completed. The Belgian trainer has left De Grolsch Veste for Saudi Premier League outfit, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Al-Shabab-c38361 Riyadh.
The 52-year-old tactician won silverware in his debut season with the Enschede-based outfit by winning Johan Cruijff Shield and KNVB beker Cup. However, he lost the Eredivisie title to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AFC-Ajax-c38228 Amsterdam on the final day of the season.
His good performances did not go unnoticed as the 52-year-old gathered interest from Saudi National football team and Olympique Lyonnais as well. However, the Belgian preferred to choose Al-Shabab.
The tactician admitted that he liked working with the Tukkers and believes that the results were impressive.
“I have enjoyed working at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233. It's been a fantastic year in terms of results for both the club and also for myself”, Preud’homme was quoted as saying to the media.
The former Belgian International then went on to appreciate the Tukkers board, who allowed him to make a move away from De Grolsch Veste in spite of the manager having a contract with the KNVB beker Cup winners.
“I am very happy that the board understands the situation and has respected my wish to move on. I wish Twente all the best for the future and am confident they will be successful”, He concluded.
The Reds president, Joop Munsterman, praised Preud’homme for his impressive performances in 2010/11 season.
“It's amazing what Michel Preud'homme did last season for FC Twente. His colleagues have been chosen him coach of the year for nothing, but simply due to the success of Michel Preud'homme this year. We wish http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-c25261 great success in his new position”, Munsterman
admired.
The Tukkers now have to search for a new tactician who could lead the side in the 2011/12 season. Ronald Koeman, Co Adriaanse and Frank Rijkaard have all been heavily linked for the coaching http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 at De Grolsch Veste. However, Rijkaard is the favourite to
land the job ahead of the next season.
