It was no longer a secret, since he was already at the Commanderie on Sunday to lay the foundations for the work that awaits him, but it is now official: Igor Tudor is the new coach of OM.

The Croatian, who succeeds Jorge Sampaoli, has signed a two-year contract, the club said in a press release published on Monday afternoon.

“At only 44 years old, Igor Tudor already has extensive experience in European football.

Passed by Croatia, Greece, Turkey and Italy, he managed several clubs in different championships.

Recognized for his forward-looking philosophy of play, he has always sought to impose a strong identity on his teams,” boasts the Olympian club about the former coach of Hellas Verona.
