The Italian coach Fabio Capello is the new coach of Jiangsu Suning, from the Chinese first division, as reported by the club itself in a press release.
Fabio Capello, 70 years old, who has managed Real Madrid, Juventus, Roma, Milan, as well as the England and Russia national teams, has been unemployed since he left his position as coach of the Russian national team in 2015.
The Italian takes charge of a team that was the runner-up in the league and cup last year, but is currently struggling, flirting with relegation positions when the competition is halfway through.
Due to poor results, the previous team coach, South Korean Choi Yong-soo, was dismissed earlier this month and the club began negotiations for Fabio Capello's arrival.
He's ready. The Italian coach is already in China, so he will start directing the team immediately and has already attended the training sessions of his new squad, which includes Brazilians Teixeira and Ramirez, as well as Colombian Roger Martinez. EFE
