Mauricio Pellegrino has now officially been named Valencia's manager.

Quote

The president, Manuel Llorente has reported, after the act of renewal of contract with the 'main sponsor' JinkoSolar, the Club has reached an agreement with Mauricio Pellegrino as coach of Valencia CF for the next two seasons. " This afternoon the Board of Directors has ratified the agreement last Friday with Mauricio Pellegrino to be the first team the next two seasons " , said the president.

Thats an interesting move I must say. Fair play to Valencia for giving him a chance, he is clearly still well respected over there. Good luck Mauricio.

Isn't there talk of Emery going to Spartak or something?

Very pleased for him, I hope he does well. Having played under Bielsa, van Gaal and Benitez, as well as working as a coach under Rafa, he's certainly been able to learn from some of the best.

It's an impressive set of managers to learn from - I am sure he has picked up some good habits from them, plus they will be a good support network for advice if he needs it.

Will be interesting to see how he does at Valencia. Read that Rafa recommended him for the job.

All the best, that's one man less from your backroom staff Rafa la. I'm always available you know! Probably spend my first session just staring at things, but it'll get better.

Good luck to Pellegrino. Hopefully, he will end duopoly of Barca and R. Madrid and in La Liga.

Valencia appoint Pellegrino

Valencia have announced the appointment of Mauricio Pellegrino as their new coach.

Former Valencia defender Pellegrino, 40, has agreed a two-year deal and will take charge from next season. He had previously worked as assistant manager to Rafael Benitez at Liverpool and Inter Milan.

Club president Manuel Llorente told the club's official website: "The board have signed and ratified the agreement reached this past Friday with Mauricio Pellegrini, who will be the first-team manager for the next two seasons."

A Valencia spokesman had earlier revealed an approach had been made for Andre Villas-Boas but that the Portuguese had accepted a job elsewhere.

Pellegrino replaces Unai Emery, who will leave the club when his contract expires this summer after four years in charge.

Valencia have secured third place in La Liga this season for the third time in succession and also reached the Copa del Rey and Europa League semi-finals.

Good luck to him. Also interesting about AVB, I wonder who it is.

I just wonder if Rafa was offered the job.

Given how highly Rafa thought of him and him being a Valencia old boy it's easy to see that being a success. Time will tell though.

Austin Powers · « **Reply #23 on:** May 8, 2012, 01:43:01 pm »

Some guy on my twitter was saying he's had an amazing 'education' having worked under Van Gaal, Bielsa and Rafa. Will be interesting to see Valencia's style under him.

Delighted for him. Great attitude and hope he carves a name for himself as a successful manager

Jimmy Two Times · « **Reply #26 on:** May 8, 2012, 04:04:55 pm »

Good on him. Given the coaches he's worked with and under, he should've come up with a clear plan to incorporate the best of them as much as he can into this Valencia team. He has a good squad to play with and I think with a couple of additions, they can solidify their position as the best among the rest.

masterbaker · « **Reply #27 on:** May 8, 2012, 04:20:33 pm »

good luck to him, he was well past his best by the time he got here, but was a class player before that

Danyaals Kop · « **Reply #28 on:** May 8, 2012, 04:41:29 pm »

Best of luck to him.

He's got all the credentials to do well but managing Valencia is a difficult job. How do you push on that bit extra to get beyond being 3rd every year to really compete with the giants of Real and Barca. In fact you'll more likely be looking over your shoulder at the rise of Malaga. Still I hope he does well. I like Valencia as a city and as a club.

Great start to his career at Alaves.

Hope he can keep them up.

Bit of a step down from Man City though ain't it?
