Close to returning as our new sporting director. https://sportwitness.co.uk/watford-close-to-appointing-valon-behrami-as-sporting-director/
Interesting, we could definitely do with some bastards like him in the squad, but does he actually have any experience as a sporting director?
In charge of buying and selling players, Nani has ostensibly been in charge of that recently hasn’t he?
Interesting. Might be the one to finally give Bayat the boot? Very good player, certainly played for the shirt as well. Whether this is just a media rumour or it has teeth we will know soon enough I guess.
I'm wondering if in the recent cull of staff Duxbury was one which left, we haven't heard from him since the job losses were mentioned, although to be fair he is still listed as a director of the club at companies house!
Can only see this as a positive. Obviously they've seen that they cannot split a Sporting director between two clubs.
It's a namby pamby title I think. Tennis is full of them, ' Director of Tennis ' ' Tennis Manager'. Just a way to appoint someone over a present incumbent to out manoeuvre them I think.
Absolutely no chance, hah. He'll just be another useful stooge, with that position bolstered by the recognition he'll get from supporters thanks to his playing history.
Well if he is as aggressive and sharp as he was as a player could be quite a volatile relationship with Pozzo .
Had a quick look and I cant find what he has been up to since he retired so I have no clue if this is a good appointment or not.
Well, if he is club captain and on a 5 year deal, I can't see the club going into overdrive to get rid of him
My understanding is he’s coming as Assistant Sporting Director, a role he performed fairly recently too at Brescia in Italy. I’m not led to believe that Nani is leaving us.
Our new ITK Mr Malteser Hopefully people just appreciate you passing on what you’ve heard rather than using it as a stick to hit you with! Cheers for the updates
Thanks! I am actually just passing on what the WO are reporting, but in a journalistic sort of language. I’m not at all in the know! How are things with you? Good close season so far?
Valon Behrami, he's a bit of a animal.... This actually sounds interesting as he has some ties to Watford.
Anyone with any financial intelligence, all the "Charges" seem to relate to Gino's favourite Piggy Bank, M. Bank. Does that relate to we owe them money? Or does it mean something undisclosed?
