Last July, Patrick Vieira and the Racing Club de Strasbourg announced that they were ending their collaboration after only one year of working together. The 1998 world and 2000 European champion with the French team wasted no time in finding a new mission by becoming one of the star consultants of DAZNbroadcaster of Ligue 1. An experience which will already end since Patrick Vieira will become the last coach of Genoa.
In great difficulty in Serie A, the seventeenth in the ranking which is only a very small point ahead of the red zone has chosen the Frenchman to take over from Alberto Gilardino. At least that’s what Matteo Moretto announced. The transalpine journalist even added that Vieira would be in charge this week. It is therefore a major new challenge that presents itself for the former midfielder.
First on an Italian bench
After having worked with Manchester City’s youth team, Patrick Vieira had his first real experience as a number one coach on the MLS and New York City side. Then he landed in Ligue 1 on the bench of OGC Nice where he played for a year and a half. Same time then spent on the Premier League side with Crystal Palace.
It is therefore a new championship that Vieira will discover with Genoa, even if Serie A is not a discovery for him since he has notably worn the colors of AC Milan, Juventus and Inter Milan at during his playing career. It remains to be seen whether he will manage to save the Genoese club from relegation.
