Big Yellow for the dream, called the big competition - Robert Prosinečki is the most serious candidate to be the new coach of the football team of Montenegro, "Vijesti" has learned.
The Football Association of Montenegro has apparently decided that one of the greatest playing legends from this area - former European champion with Red Star, third place in the World Cup with Croatia and former Real and Barcelona player - will be Miodrag Radulović's successor.
The man who, after a great playing career, led clubs in Serbia, Turkey, Slovenia and Croatia as a coach, already has a lot of experience in the position of selector, having led Azerbaijan and Bosnia and Herzegovina from the bench.
He led Azerbaijan from 2014 to 2017, and in the South Caucasus he is still considered the most successful coach alongside the famous German Berti Vogts. In that period, he registered several notable results, such as draws with Croatia, Norway and the Czech Republic, and under his leadership, that selection recorded the most convincing victory in history - 5:1 against San Marino.
He also achieved a remarkable result on the bench of the "dragons", and together with Safet Sušić, he holds the record of 10 victories in a series of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
With him, Bosnia and Herzegovina jumped into League A of the League of Nations and qualified for the 2020 European Championship. However, under the leadership of Dusan Bajević, they failed to get past Northern Ireland.
He started his coaching career as an assistant to Slaven Bilić in the coaching staff of Croatia, and managed Crvena zvezda, Kajzerispor, Denizlispor, Olimpija from Ljubljana and briefly Croatian Rudeš.
Prosinečki should be the seventh coach of Montenegro, and the second to come from Croatia - after Zoran Filipović, Zlatko Kranjčar, Branko Brnović, Ljubiša Tumbaković, Faruk Hadžibegić and Radulović.
FSCG President Dejan Savićević and he were one of the leaders of the golden generation of Crvena Zvezda, which conquered Europe and the world in 1991.
The first matches on the bench of Montenegro could be friendlies in March against Belarus and North Macedonia, while the "falcons" will play their next competitive matches in the fall in the League of Nations.
