MIROSLAV DJUKIC PARTS WITH PARTIZAN!
As of today, Miroslav Djukic is Partizan FC coach no more! After talks with club`s directors, Djukic visited club`s employees, thanked them on cooperation so far, had a farewell greeting and left Partizan Fc offices.
Partizan Sports Director Ivan Tomic gave as an official statement regarding Djukic`s departure soon after:
Djukic parted with Partizan, as of today..
- I`ve had talks with Djukic and he said he was leaving, with one of the main reasons being family matter. He is away from his family long enough. Other reason is a new football challenge that awaits him somewhere else.
That probably being a national team coaching post?
- I don`t know. That`s something you have to ask Djukic. I wish him all the best in whatever he is about to do. His work in Partizan so far has been brilliant, and I have to say that Partizan would pick up championship title with Djukic, but also, Partizan will do so with some other coach, too. Therefore we have no worries and we believe we will continue in a same fashion, strenghten our squad even more and get ready for the second part of the season.
It`s probably to early to ask who will take over?
- We have to give it few more thoughts. There are fabulous solutions around and we believe it will make us even stronger come Springtime.
Roughly, is there a deadline for appointment of a new coach?
- No, not at all. I have to wait General Secretary Gordan Petric to come back from his business trip, tomorrow. On Friday, two of us will stage intensive talks and consult club`s Board to see what`s our next step. I`m saying it again – we have excellent options up the sleeve, therefore we have a reason to believe everything is going to be ok.
One more question..Is it clear now when does Spring part of the season kicks off?
- It`s 1st of March. AS for pre-season arrangements, we`ll deal with it when a new coach is appointed. Roughly, we should gather 22nd, or 23rd of January. More likely on 23rd.
